Rylan is Irish but all its meanings mean Island Meadow. Sounds fabulous if I do say so myself

[DND 2,355]

'Incognito' is the Latin word for disguised. 

'Kiwoy' is just something I made up in my toddler years for cats. 

 

All the same, It's original, so I won't be needing to worry about it already being taken.

 

 

 

Grayson

 

 

Grayson? What a cute first name!

 

Are you sure it meant 'gray-bearded man'? Last time I checked, it was a name for young, heroic, acrobatic wards! (Sorry- not sorry.)

[Colorful Respawn 399]

Incognito Kiwoy, thanks! And my name has many different meanings I guess?

[Shanks 10,816]

My name apparently means "spear ruler", if I ever heard of a porn star with the first name "Jerry" I am going to laugh my ass off.

[Rhodeana 17]

My name means "Field" in gaelic... pretty boring... yup.

[Sapana 66]

My name is in Hindi and means 'goddess of victory'.

[Toxic Hoof 92]

My name is Mitchell, which is Hebrew for "Gift from God", It is also American for "Like God". I find this kind of ironic since I'm an Atheist.

also my last name means manly, "the descendant of Andrew (manly); one who was manly."

so it is definitive... I am a manly god like person that watches a show for little girls

Christian means... well... Christian.

 

In other translations it's also "Follower of Christ" or "Believer in Christ" which is hilariously ironic because I'm an athiest.

[PE Brony 1,712]

My first name means "Tailor" and my last name apparently means "Year by Year." So...I guess that makes me "A Tailor over the Years?"

[Odyssey 5,716]

My name, Summer, means... well, "summer". Kind of wished I had a name with a less obvious meaning, though.

[Throwaway19573639385 764]

My name's Eduard, it means protector of the people. It's a funny coincidence that plenty of people come to me for advice or see me like some kind of brother, kinda awesome in my opinion hehe 

[Moost 164]

My name is Cliff, as in jump off a Cliff. Just kidding, my name is Mitchell which means diabolical asshole.

I see there are other Erics in here too! Nice. Didn't know of any others on the forum before today. One of them is actually "Erik," but that counts too.
 
As stated on the first page, my name means "eternal ruler." But there's more to it than that. I'll just quote the omniscient Wikipedia to explain other meanings:
 

The first element, ei- is derived either from the older Proto-Norse *aina(z) meaning "one" or "alone" or from Proto-Norse *aiwa(z) meaning "ever" or "eternal". The second element -ríkr derives either from *rík(a)z meaning "ruler" or "prince" (cf. Gothic reiks) or from an even older Proto-Germanic *ríkiaz which meant "powerful" and "rich". The name is thus usually taken to mean "one ruler", "autocrat", "eternal ruler" or "ever powerful," and "government"."

 
 
So there we have the aforementioned "eternal ruler," as well as "one ruler," "ever powerful," "government." There's also "autocrat," though I'm not as fond of the connotations that meaning provides.

[Scootaloodle 1,623]

My name 'Asher' is a Hebrew name which means happy

 

I just looked it up and my parents said it meant 'the laughing one' I think.

My name's Anthony.

 

I have no idea what it means.

[Sugar Cube 4,843]

My first name is Amy which means beloved. Not a terribly deep meaning perhaps, but it's more interesting compared to my last name which has no significance whatsoever, and I would say it certainly fits me.
