This question is simple; what does your name mean in other languages? Although the organ of your name might be Hebrew, Irish, Latin there is always a meaning for it, either being adopted or originally from that tongue.

My name is Molly, and my name in Irish means "Sea of Bitterness," in English it means "Bitter". Fun isn't it?

So asked the question to your self, and look up on Google or another information site and you might be surprised what you learn.

Quick notice; I was looking around the forms and I though this was the best place. If its not could you please tell me? Thanks.

Interesting topic!

Il nome è ampiamente diffuso in tutta Italia, anche nelle varianti al femminile Georgia, Giorgiana e Georgiana, Giorgina. La dìffusione del nome riprende il culto di vari santi, tra cui il più venerato è s. Giorgio di Lydda, tribuno martirizzato in Palestina al tempo di Diocleziano, patrono dell'Inghilterra, della Russia, di Ferrara, Carnpobasso, Reggio Calabria e protettore dei cavalieri: secondo la leggenda, infatti, cavalcando un destriero bianco avrebbe ucciso con la lancia un drago, simbolo del male, per liberare una principessa. Molti ordini cavallereschi hanno assunto in suo onore questo nome, che si è diffuso anche per il prestigio di sei re di Gran Bretagna e Irlanda e di due re di Grecia. Numerosi nella storia i personaggi famosi: il rivoluzionario francese del Settecento Danton; il vescovo e filosofo irlandese del Settecento Berkeley e il filosofo tedesco Heghel (1770-1831); il pittore Giorgio da Castelfranco detto'Giorgione'(1477-1510); il pittore francese Braque, i pittori metafisici De Chirico e Morandi; il pittore e storico dell'arte toscano del Cinquecento Vasari; il poeta inglese Byron; lo scrittore belga Simenon, il francese cattolico Bernanos, l'argentino Borges, l'inglese del Novecento Orwell, la scrittrice francese dell'Ottocento Sand, il romanziere brasiliano del Novecento Amado; il compositore tedesco del Settecento Haendel e il musicista francese Bizet; il musicista e compositore statunitense Gershwin; l'uffìciale sovietico Gagarin, protagonista del primo volo umano nello spazio. Chi porta questo nome è dominatore, egocentrico, amante delle grandi fortune, del denaro, delle attività fruttuose, assetato dì conquiste oppure totalmente rivolto alla metafisica, ai numeri, alle astrazioni, alle contemplazioni. Esiste anche chi con questo nome è spinto irresistibilmente verso entrambe le nature. In comune, tuttavia, hanno sempre la sete di possesso sia che si tratti di cose materiali che di sapere e conoscenza.

My name (Monique) means: Advisor.
It's also the French form of the name Monica (spanish), and my name comes from a Greek word 'mono' meaning alone or lonely.
So basically my name means I'm a lonely advisor XD

My middle name is a Basque one. Ane (NOT Anne, it's pronounced Ah-nay) means Grace or gracious.

I don't think my last name has a meaning because it's very uncommon (well, in the Western side of the world, anyway. I believe some have my last name in Spain), but even if it did I'd never say my last name on here haha XD

Katherine means "pure" and originates from the Greek "Katharos." Which sounds pretty awesome.

My middle name Lee is English and means "field/pasture."

All in all, my name means "pure field." Sounds like a Final Fantasy level.

Conor

According to Wikipedia, my name means "lover of wolves" or "hound lover". Ironic huh?

George (Middle name)

"Farmer" or "Earth Worker".

In conclusion, I love wolves; and apparently I'm a farmer...

My first name means "Honey-Bee" in Greek & "Red Rose" in Persian, & my other name means "The defender of man" in Greek.
Not sure about the first 2 ones, but the last one is pretty cool, though none of them really fits me.

I just looked up my middle name; Ann. Haha, and it doesn't match my first name.

Molly
Gender: Female
Origin: Irish
Meaning: Sea Of Bitterness

Ann

So basicly I am a gracious sea of bitterness... Which does not appeal to me; I perfer to be the Sea of Betterness that I am. =D
