What's your First Name?

Archive: 228 posts


Hi everyone. I was curious to know what everyone's first names are. I go on another forum where everyone calls each other by their names and I was wondering whether it could work here!

Just post your first name and say what you think of my idea!

Mine's Fergus (that looks weird when I type it...)

Fergus? I don't think I've ever heard that name ever. Well maybe that's because I live in the States and you live in England.

My name is Joseph, but I prefer people to call me Joe instead.

My name is Scottish/Irish. It comes from the name Fearghas meaning 'Man of Valor' What does your name mean?

If you don't know, there's a great website called Behind the Name, here's a link:

Woah...

From Olivier, a Norman French form of a Germanic name such as ALFHER or an Old Norse name such as ?leifr (see OLAF). The spelling was altered by association with Latin oliva "olive tree". In the Middle Ages the name became well-known in Western Europe because of the French epic 'La Chanson de Roland', in which Olivier was a friend and advisor of the hero Roland.
In England Oliver was a common medieval name, however it became rare after the 17th century because of the military commander Oliver Cromwell, who ruled the country following the civil war. The name was revived in the 19th century, perhaps in part due to the title character in Charles Dickens' novel 'Oliver Twist' (1838), which was about a poor orphan living on the streets of London.

All I new about was the olive tree thing.

As an English name, Benjamin came into general use after the Protestant Reformation. A famous bearer was Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790), an American statesman, inventor, scientist and philosopher.

Knew all of that already. Son of my right hand=God's right hand=Jesus therefore I am Jesus' son, Jesus=God, therefore I'm God's son.

Her name was originally שָׂרָי (Saray), but God changed it (see Genesis 17:15).

Gee, what a creative god.

"Hmm, how can I make the name Saray better?
...
I could just... no, that'd be too easy...
But then... yes, let's get rid of the Y! That will give them something to write about."

ADAM

Gender: Masculine

Usage: English, French, German, Dutch, Polish, Czech, Slovak, Russian, Ukrainian, Romanian, Hebrew, Arabic, Biblical, Biblical Latin, Biblical Greek, Biblical Hebrew

Other Scripts: Адам (Russian, Ukrainian), אָדָם (Hebrew), آدم (Arabic), Αδαμ (Ancient Greek)

Pronounced: A-dəm (English), AH-dahm (German, Dutch, Polish), ah-DAHM (Russian) [key]
This is the Hebrew word for "man". It could be ultimately derived from Hebrew אדם ('adam) meaning "to be red", referring to the ruddy colour of human skin, or from Akkadian adamu meaning "to make". According to Genesis in the Old Testament Adam was created from the earth by God (there is a word play on Hebrew אֲדָמָה ('adamah) "earth"). He and Eve were supposedly the first humans, living happily in the Garden of Eden until Adam ate a forbidden fruit given to him by Eve.

As an English Christian name, Adam has been common since the Middle Ages, and it received a boost after the Protestant Reformation. A famous bearer was Scottish economist Adam Smith (1723-1790).

OK well here's the stuff that no one cares about. lol

Joseph
Gender: Masculine
Usage: English, French, German, Biblical

From Ioseph, the Latin form of Greek Ιωσηφ (Ioseph), which was from the Hebrew name יוֹסֵף (Yosef) meaning "he will add". In the Old Testament Joseph was the eleventh son of Jacob. Because he was the favourite of his father, his older brothers sent him to Egypt and told their father that he had died. In Egypt, Joseph became an advisor to the pharaoh, and was eventually reconciled with his brothers when they came to Egypt during a famine. This name also occurs in the New Testament, belonging to Saint Joseph the husband of Mary and Joseph of Arimathea.
In the Middle Ages, Joseph was a common Jewish name, being less frequent among Christians. In the late Middle Ages Saint Joseph became more highly revered, and the name became popular in Spain and Italy. In England it became common after the Protestant Reformation. This name was borne by rulers of the Holy Roman Empire and Portugal. Other notable bearers include Polish-British author Joseph Conrad (1857-1924) and the Soviet dictator Joseph Stalin (1878-1953).

So my name means, "he will add". What will I add? Sounds vague. And boring. I'd rather be named after a tree like olit.

And am I supposed to be proud that I share a name with Joseph Stalin?...

Frazer (Duh)

Gender: Male

Pronounced: Like Razor (the thing you shave with) with an "f" attached at the middle.

Etymolgy - It is a Scottish and Norman French name that is often tied to the name "Fraser" or "Frasier" but bares little resemblance in meaning. The Fraser/Frasier name is based of the word "strawberry", however, the name Frazer means "of the forest men". It is surprising then that such a feminine name like Fraser/Frasier is so often used for men when the name "Frazer" has much more masculine undertones.

ANDREW

Gender: Masculine
Usage: English, Biblical
Pronounced: AN-droo (English) [key]
From the Greek name Ανδρεας (Andreas), which was derived from ανηρ (aner) "man" (genitive ανδρος (andros) "of a man"). In the New Testament the apostle Andrew, the first disciple to join Jesus, was the brother of Simon Peter. According to tradition, he later preached in the Black Sea region, with some legends saying he was crucified on an X-shaped cross. Andrew, being a Greek name, was probably only a nickname or a translation of his real Hebrew name, which is not known.
This name has been common (in various spellings) throughout the Christian world, and it became very popular in the Middle Ages. Saint Andrew is regarded as the patron of Scotland, Russia, Greece and Romania. The name has been borne by three kings of Hungary, American president Andrew Jackson (1767-1845), and, more recently, English composer Andrew Lloyd Webber (1948-).

I guess you can all bow to me now.

Usage: English, French, German, Dutch, Scandinavian, Greek, Biblical, Biblical Latin, Biblical Greek

Other Scripts: Θωμας (Greek)

Pronounced: TAHM-əs (English), TOM-əs (English), to-MA (French), TO-mahs (German, Dutch), tho-MAHS (Greek) [key]
Greek form of the Aramaic name תָּאוֹמָא (Ta'oma&apos which meant "twin". In the New Testament this was the name of the apostle who initially doubted the resurrected Jesus. According to tradition he was martyred in India. Due to his renown, the name came into general use in the Christian world.

In England the name was introduced by the Normans and became very popular due to Saint Thomas Becket, a 12th-century archbishop of Canterbury and martyr. Another notable saint by this name was the 13th-century Italian philosopher and theologian Thomas Aquinas, who is regarded as a Doctor of the Church. Other famous bearers include philosopher Thomas Hobbes (1588-1679), American president Thomas Jefferson (1743-1826), novelist Thomas Hardy (1840-1928), and inventor Thomas Edison (1847-1931).

I guess that site doesn't have my middle name. Maybe it's too exotic.

My middle name is Saria (both the 'a' sounds sound like the 'a' at the end of my first name Brianna, like a 'u' in the word but, so Su-ree u)

I like my middle better, which isn't an American name at all. It seems more along exotic ethnicities like Indian (and I don't mean Native American, I mean think India). This is just a guess though. Can also be spelled Sahria with an h. But the legal spelling of my name is simply Saria. An h would make it even more exotic, lol, not that I would mind. ^_^

It's a prettyful name, and not boring like my first name Brianna.

JAMES
Gender: Masculine

Usage: English, Biblical

Pronounced: JAYMZ (English)

English form of the Late Latin name Iacomus which was derived from Ιακωβος (Iakobos), the New Testament Greek form of the Hebrew name Ya'aqov (see JACOB). This was the name of two apostles in the New Testament. The first was Saint James the Greater, the apostle John's brother, who was beheaded under Herod Agrippa in the Book of Acts. The second was James the Lesser, son of Alphaeus. Another James (known as James the Just) is also mentioned in the Bible as being the brother of Jesus.
Since the 13th century this form of the name has been used in England, though it became more common in Scotland, where it was borne by several kings. In the 17th century the Scottish king James VI inherited the English throne, becoming the first ruler of all Britain, and the name grew much more popular. Famous bearers include the explorer Captain James Cook (1728-1779), the inventor of the steam engine James Watt (1736-1819), and the novelist and poet James Joyce (1882-1941). This name has also been borne by six American presidents. A notable fictional bearer is the British spy James Bond, created by author Ian Fleming.

My name is John.. hence the first initial in jww

John -masculine

The name John is derived, via Latin and Greek, from the Hebrew name Yochanan (יוחנן meaning "HaShem is gracious". Yochanan was the name of several important rabbis in the Second Temple Period in Israel, such as Yochanan ben Zakai and Yochanan ben Nuri.
The name had gained popularity among Jews in Judea and Galilee by the time the area became a province of the Roman Empire in 6 A.D.[citation needed] It was the given name of Yochanan ben Zechariah, a Jewish prophet known in English as John the Baptist. It was also the given name of Yochanan ben Zibhdi, a fisherman from Galilee who became one of the favorite students (called disciples) of Jesus Christ and so is known in English as John the Apostle. Because Yochanan also wrote one of the four accounts of the life of Jesus Christ called gospels, the Gospel of St. John and the Book of Revelation, he is also known as John the Evangelist.

However, as all nifty as that is... The name is commonly used to decribe males of an unknown identity as in a "John Doe". John is also commonly used to refer to bathrooms as in "I'm going to the John" or used to describe the patrons of working women of the evening. i.e. prostitutes.

...that last part brings it down a notch doncha think?

Gender: Masculine

Usage: English, Russian, Biblical

Other Scripts: Марк (Russian)

Pronounced: MAHRK (English, Russian) [key]
English and Russian form of MARCUS. Saint Mark was the author of the second Gospel in the New Testament. He is the patron saint of Venice, where he is supposedly buried. Though in use during the Middle Ages, Mark was not common in the English-speaking world until the 19th century, when it began to be used alongside the classical form Marcus.

In the Celtic legend of Tristan and Isolde this was the name of a king of Cornwall. It was also borne by the American author Mark Twain (1835-1910), real name Samuel Clemens, the author of 'Tom Sawyer' and 'Huckleberry Finn'. He actually took his pen name from a call used by riverboat workers on the Mississippi River to indicate a depth of two fathoms. This is also the usual English spelling of the name of the 1st-century BC Roman triumvir Marcus Antonius (Mark Antony).

Nothing wrong with your first name...Mine is Joshua...you know how many Josh's there are?!?!? Way to many, of course I am the best, so it's ok.
And your middle name is pretty awesome.

I guess that site doesn't have my middle name. Maybe it's too exotic.

My middle name is Saria (both the 'a' sounds sound like the 'a' at the end of my first name Brianna, like a 'u' in the word but, so Su-ree u)

I like my middle better, which isn't an American name at all. It seems more along exotic ethnicities like Indian (and I don't mean Native American, I mean think India). This is just a guess though. Can also be spelled Sahria with an h. But the legal spelling of my name is simply Saria. An h would make it even more exotic, lol, not that I would mind. ^_^

It's a prettyful name, and not boring like my first name Brianna.

I know a Josh... I wish I didn't. He was acting like a 5 year old, pestering EVERYONE just to get attention. He always says OW!! Whenever anything happens to him. Man up, I say.

Well my name is Jack.
Too lazy to look it up.

Thanks. I dislike having a common first name. Unlike you, I can't make myself look at it in a good way, lol. ^_^ Too common. But I deal with it. Okay, I'll admit, sometimes I try to think of it in a good way since there are models with that name, and I have been told I should do modeling, and Brianna is pronounced with the first a sounding like an o or ah. So at least it's not pronounced Bri-ann-u. Lol. So that helps.

And yes, I have to agree, you are the best Joshua. Somehow I just know this.

My name is Cyle. Yeah, with a C, not a K. How epic is that? Lemme pull down the meaning on the K version, though, since I don't think they recognise the C version (but they SHOULD!)

KYLE
Gender: Masculine
Usage: English
Pronounced: KIEL, KIE-əl [key]
From a Scottish surname which was derived from Gaelic caol meaning "narrows, channel, strait".

I always thought it had a better meaning... And it looks so wrong with a K. xD; Anyway, you guys can call me Cyle if you want. It's a bit shorter than dandygandy, no?

Daniel... but I mostly go by Danny (although my billiards team all call me "The Danald")

Gender: Masculine
Usage: English, Hebrew, French, German, Scandinavian, Polish, Czech, Spanish, Portuguese, Romanian, Slovene, Biblical, Biblical Greek
Other Scripts: Δανιηλ (Ancient Greek)

Pronounced: DAN-yul (English), dah-nee-EL (Hebrew), dan-YEL (French), DAH-nee-el (German), DAHN-yel (Polish) [key]

From the Hebrew name דָּנִיֵּאל (Daniyyel) meaning "God is my judge". Daniel was a Hebrew prophet whose story is told in the Book of Daniel in the Old Testament. He lived during the Jewish captivity in Babylon, where he served in the court of the king, rising to prominence by interpreting the king's dreams. The book also presents Daniel's four visions of the end of the world.
Due to the popularity of the biblical character, the name came into use in England during the Middle Ages. Though it became rare by the 15th century, it was revived after the Protestant Reformation. Famous bearers of this name include English author Daniel Defoe (1660-1731), Swiss mathematician Daniel Bernoulli (1700-1782), and American frontiersman Daniel Boone (1734-1820).


This just gives me another reason to not like my first name. My name doesn't even have all that fancy history behind it everyone else's does. Mine just showed up this . . .

BRIANNA
Gender: Feminine
Usage: English, Irish
Pronounced: bree-AN-ə [key]
Feminine form of BRIAN

I think I'll look up my middle name, which I do like as it's exotic, and I wish it was my first.

For what it's worth, I think it's a beautiful name, Brianna; but combined with the middle name it's even better. Exotic, unusual, lovely...

Brianna Saria ... just rolls off the tongue.

Gil.
Short for Gilead (gil-ee-ehd) (biblical, 'There is a Balm in Gilead' etc), not Gilligan. Derived originally from the hebrew Gilad (gee-lahd) (hard g) (emphasis on the second syllable).
I always always always go by Gil though.

THOMAS
Gender: Masculine
Usage: English, French, German, Dutch, Scandinavian, Greek, Biblical, Biblical Latin, Biblical Greek
Other Scripts: Θωμας (Greek)
Pronounced: TAHM-əs (English), TOM-əs (English), to-MA (French), TO-mahs (German, Dutch), tho-MAHS (Greek) [key]
Greek form of the Aramaic name תָּאוֹמָא (Ta'oma&apos which meant "twin". In the New Testament this was the name of the apostle who initially doubted the resurrected Jesus. According to tradition he was martyred in India. Due to his renown, the name came into general use in the Christian world.
In England the name was introduced by the Normans and became very popular due to Saint Thomas Becket, a 12th-century archbishop of Canterbury and martyr. [rest deleted because its boring from then on]

I'm a twin as well, and when I told my friend who is also a twin, he started calling himself Tom. But there is only one true Tom. Me.

My mum calls me 'Thomas-a-becket' and when I was 6 or 7 my teacher called me doubting Thomas around Easter time. (Catholic school)

Both are references to the passage above and both make me embarrassed. :/

Seems that innocent website seems popular!
I use it to find meanings all the names for all the characters in my novel. Sometimes I make anagrams of them to keep them sounding more fantasy-esque.
E.g. The main characters name is Imeda, meaning Hope, (the name of the book).

BRENNAN

Gender: Masculine

Usage: English, Irish (Gaelic)

Pronounced: BREN-an.

Apparantly, this name is fairly common throughout Ireland as a first name, but uncommon throughout the United States as a first name. The name derives from the Irish name ? Braon?in, from braon, meaning "tear drop", which in turn makes the meaning of my name "sorrow". Also, my name can also mean "raven" (as derived from the words Mac Bran?in and ? Bran?in).

My first name is MARNIE
Gender: Feminine
Pronounced: MAHR-nee [key]
This name was brought to public attention by Alfred Hitchcock's movie 'Marnie' (1964), and indeed I was named after that movie - before my parents saw it and realised what a nutjob 'Marnie' actually was.

However, I don't get called Marnie very often - I'm usually called "Muuuuuuuuuuuum!" :/

"Monica - Ancient name of uncertain etymology.

Monica was the name of the mother of St. Augustine, who was burn in Numidia. Thus the name might be of African origin. However, Monica is said to have been a citizen of Carthage, a city founded by the Phoenicians, so her name might be of Phoenician origin.

Alternatively, some believe it to be from the Latin 'moneo' to advise, warn, counsel; or from the Greek 'monos, mon?', meaning alone, unique, solitary."

Theodore

Gender:Masculine
Usage:English
Pronounced:THEE o dawr**

From the Greek name ???????? (Theodoros), which meant "gift of god" from Greek ???? (theos)"god" and ????? (doron)"gift". This was the name of several saints, including Theodore of Amasea, a 4th-century Greek soldier; Theodore of Tarsus, a 7th-century archbishop of Canterbury; and Theodore the Studite, a 9th-century Byzantine monk. It was also borne by two popes.

ZACKARY
Gender: Masculine
Usage: English
Pronounced: ZAK-ə-ree [key]
Variant of ZACHARY
--And then a few more clicks later--
From the Hebrew name ???? (Zekharyah) meaning "YAHWEH remembers". This was the name of many characters in the Old Testament, including the prophet Zechariah, the author of the Book of Zechariah. The name also appears in the New Testament belonging to the father of John the Baptist, who was temporarily made dumb because of his disbelief. In some versions of the New Testament his name is spelled in the Greek form Zacharias. As an English name, it has been in occasional use since the Protestant Reformation.

So basically, my name is derivative from a bunch of old forms of Zechariah and Zachary. Plus my name is really common... Also, like Evanesced did above, The question marks is Hebrew.

NICHOLAS
Gender: Masculine
Usage: English, French
Pronounced: NIK-ə-ləs (English), nee-ko-LA (French) [key]
From the Greek name Νικολαος (Nikolaos) which meant "victory of the people" from Greek νικη (nike) "victory" and λαος (laos) "people". Saint Nicholas was a 4th-century bishop from Anatolia who, according to legend, saved the daughters of a poor man from lives of prostitution. He is the patron saint of children, sailors and merchants, as well as Greece and Russia. He formed the basis for the figure known as Santa Claus (created in the 19th century from Dutch Sinterklaas), the bringer of Christmas presents.
Due to the renown of the saint, this name has been widely used in the Christian world. It has been common in England since the 12th century, though it became a bit less popular after the Protestant Reformation. The name has been borne by five popes and two czars of Russia.

ADAM

Gender: Masculine

Usage: English, French, German, Dutch, Polish, Czech, Slovak, Russian, Ukrainian, Croatian, Macedonian, Romanian, Hebrew, Arabic, Biblical, Biblical Latin, Biblical Greek, Biblical Hebrew

Other Scripts: Адам (Russian, Ukrainian, Macedonian), אָדָם (Hebrew), آدم (Arabic), Αδαμ (Ancient Greek)

Pronounced: A-dəm (English), AH-dahm (German, Dutch, Polish), ah-DAHM (Russian) [key]
This is the Hebrew word for "man". It could be ultimately derived from Hebrew אדם ('adam) meaning "to be red", referring to the ruddy colour of human skin, or from Akkadian adamu meaning "to make". According to Genesis in the Old Testament Adam was created from the earth by God (there is a word play on Hebrew אֲדָמָה ('adamah) "earth"). He and Eve were supposedly the first humans, living happily in the Garden of Eden until Adam ate a forbidden fruit given to him by Eve.

As an English Christian name, Adam has been common since the Middle Ages, and it received a boost after the Protestant Reformation. A famous bearer was Scottish economist Adam Smith (1723-1790).

My parents arent able to spell "Valerie", instead opting for "Valarie". I usually just prefer Vala. But since its SUPPOSED to be Valerie:

Ok, theres a long chain before we get anywhere. This is the start of the importance:

VALERIAGender:FeminineUsage:Italian, Spanish, Romanian, German, Ancient RomanPronounced:vah-LAY-ryah (Italian), bah-LE-ryah (Spanish)**[key]Feminine form of VALERIUS. This was the name of a 2nd-century Roman saint and martyr.

VALERIUSGender:MasculineUsage:Ancient RomanPronounced:v?-LER-ee-?s (English)**[key]Roman family name which was derived from Latin valere"to be strong". This was the name of several early saints

The latin word for the phrase "To be strong" is valere, which is where both names are derived from.
So my name means "strength" and is given to saints. Man I rule.

Jessica (most people call me Jess, except my family. They call me Jessie >_<

Gender: Feminine

Usage: English

Pronounced: JES-i-kə [key]
This name was first used in this form by Shakespeare in his play 'The Merchant of Venice' (1596), where it belongs to the daughter of Shylock. Shakespeare probably based it on the biblical name ISCAH which would have been spelled Jescha in his time. It was not commonly used as a given name until the middle of the 20th century.

I didn't know about the origin of my name. I must say, I like it more now.

My first name is Levi, I think it's Hebrew and means "joining" or "attached"
If you've ever read the Bible, maybe you're familar with the tribe of Levi.

The tribe of Levi carried out certain religious duties for the Israelites along with political responsibilities. According to the Bible, Levi was a clever and fierce political soldier, famous for his fits of anger.

Levi had a total of three sons, Gershon, Kohath, Merari and one daughter, Jochebed. On the basis of the Book of Exodus, it is said the Levi died at the age of 137 years.

Maybe I'll live to be 137 years old, you never know!

My name is Scottish/Irish. It comes from the name Fearghas meaning 'Man of Valor' What does your name mean?

If you don't know, there's a great website called Behind the Name, here's a link:
http://www.behindthename.com/

I like looking up the meanings of first names. It helps me thik of character names for my book. The main character is called Imeda, an arabic (I think) name menaing Hope. Which fits the story well.
Well my name is Charisa I checked out that website and they didn't have mine at least not spelled the same way though.

I'm not sure. How would you pronounce עניה? I vaguely recall the letter ה is silent at the end of words.

It was my last choice of name. Everything else was already taken so I just opened Liber 777 and choose something from the back.

Hi all,

my first name is Fabio.

My name resumes the ancient gentile name Fabius and Fabia, perhaps an indigenous nickname derived from the Vicia faba, "fava bean", or of Etruscan origin and unknown meaning, or the name of one of Hercules' children.

My first name is Cristina!

GENDER: Feminine
USAGE: Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, Romanian
PRONOUNCED: kree-STEE-nah (Italian, Spanish)

From Christiana, the Latin feminine form of CHRISTIAN: From the Medieval Latin name Christianus meaning "a Christian". In England it has been in use since the Middle Ages, during which time it was used by both males and females, but it did not become common until the 17th century.
This was the name of an early, possibly legendary, saint who was tormented by her pagan father. It was also borne by a 17th-century Swedish queen and patron the arts who gave up her crown in order to become a Roman Catholic.

As far as I know mine is quite an international name!

Kalawishis
GENDER: Diarrhea
USAGE: NNNNEEEERRRRGGGGGGHHHHH
PRONUNCIATION: kal uh wish iss

Originally from the Bible, in book GET A JOB 2, when God tells some teenagers to get off his lawn, which translated into Latin as Whous theus hellus evenus caresus aboutus latinus. Used later by communist party officials of the Soviet Union, who would often yell "AAAAARRRRRGGGGHH" when they were constipated, which changed into Kalawishis somehow.

Mah names so epic.
