Baby Name Meanings
Speaking as a Michael (a Hebrew name, which means "Who is like God"), I am very proud of my
name. And I think that I - principally - live up to the title! In fact, my mother would in all probability disagree; I suppose the phrase "little devil" would in all probability pass her lips if she was describing me throughout several stages of my childhood.
But then, my mother has her own issues; apparently her name (Kathleen) may be a Celtic name meaning "Very little Darling". Hmmm, that isn't the method I used to consider her during those regular occasions when she was punishing me for my "not like God" behaviour…!
And that's the fun of baby name meanings - folks build naming selections primarily based on many, many completely different reasons, including family traditions, faith, culture, uniqueness and "it just sounds extremely nice." But - within the Western world - we have a tendency to rarely do any real research into the history or real that means of baby names. Thus when the poor/lucky kid finally finds out the which means of his/her "extremely nice sounding" name, the results will be fascinating, ironic, unfortunate or just typically hilarious.
You'll be able to have a heap of fun thinking up family/friends names, looking for the meanings and trying to create a association between the two. For example, my eldest brother Clive is apparently "a cliff dweller", that is coincidental, since he lives at the high of a terribly long steep hill! Or why not play the sport with celebrities - contemplate the following:
Badu (as in r n'b singer Erykah Badu): African name that means "Tenth born kid" Winona (as in actress Winona Ryder): Sioux name meaning "Firstborn daughter" Aaliyah (the late r n'b singer): Arabic name meaning "High, exalted" Hilary (as in actresses Duff/Swank): Latin name that means "Cheerful" Some cultures have terribly fascinating traditions when it comes to baby name meanings. For example, Hindu names usually have connections with terribly positive things like truth, beauty, happiness, blessings, etc, or one in all the Hindu gods. Within the Sikh culture, girls historically have the center or surname "Kaur", that means "Princess", while the boys have the center or surname "Singh",
that means "Lion".
An African friend of mine once mentioned that a lot of Africans are given a second name adore the day of the week on that they were born. I assume is a extremely nice tradition, however in my case, my middle name would be "Sondo" (born on Sunday)!! Hmmmm… No matter type of name you've got chosen, or are brooding about for your "bundle of joy", its worth doing a very little research into the meaning. And it's never been easier, with the wealth of Net resources and books obtainable, including my very own site at www.all-concerning-baby-names.com, which is choked with resources, tips and info on baby names, baby name meanings and baby products. Your search might yield some surprises; as an example, the stunning-sounding name "Malory" is French and means that "Unhealthy luck". You could get round this by spelling it "Mallory", but this suggests "Without good fortune" in Recent German!
Alternatively, you will end up a very little confused by totally different meanings of the identical name; for instance "Leah" may be a beautiful woman's name,
however what does it mean? Well…
" In Hebrew it suggests that "Cow" or "Weary one" - uugghhh!
" In Greek it means that "Glad tidings"
" In Assyrian, it suggests that "Mistress, ruler"
And a final warning: if you're coming up with to go for a funky, unusual-sounding name, be
certain to avoid "Bacia," - its Ugandan that means is "Family deaths ruined the home!"
