Title: Your names, please?
Post by: Valentine on March 11, 2007, 12:49:37 PM
For people that are comfortable with it, I thought it might be good if we knew each other's name or something like that... Who feels safe with it, feels. Who does not, it's okay. :)

To start with, my legal name is Veronika, but my real name is Nat. I can't explain that one well, I just have too ambivalent feelings toward "Veronika" to consider it a name I like to be called by on regular basis. Sort of react to it, yet it is not what I'd call "my name". Nice to meet you.

Post by: Valentine on March 11, 2007, 04:40:21 PM
I'm very glad to know names of you all. (and I should bookmark this thread or at least read it many times.)

Pearl, I think you do have a beautiful name.
Everyone of you has, this has just striken (grammar mistake, probably) me in the first place.

And Kati, fine with me/ agreement on that, it is definately shorter :))

Are you all okay with me calling you by names in other threads, if I remember them at the moment?
Title: Your names, please?
Post by: Sander on March 11, 2007, 05:27:16 PM
Joroshiku spelled in Estonian is spelled as it is in Japanese so that's correct ;)

And well... Boku wa it is then... :D

You can call me Merry if you want. I don't mind. It's not my legal name.

My partner's name is Cloud.  Yes, some people do have stupid nature-sounding names like that.

No, it's because he had crazy parents who named him Cloud Strife.

And Dian, of course, take your time. :) It would be okay if you didn't explain too, but I don't want to risk I'll be reading your name all the times wrong, as names do mean a lot through life, different names, different roles, different roles, different ways to achieve balance :)

My parents chose names for me and my sis that can't be changed to cute names on purpose.
For example "Annie" wouldn't really be from my name. Rather from Anna or Anne. :roll: My parents are cruel people!

Anja is the russian cute form of the name anna ^^ but in russian every name has about 19384939393 cute forms... and some are not really easy to understand... for example Wanja -> Iwan, Wanka, Wanetschka, Wanjuscha

basically your name is a cute form :3

I'm just unhappy that my name means "the christian"

Post by: Radical Pan on April 15, 2008, 02:27:16 AM
I love Russian ;_;

______

Well, my name it's not common at all, but it's not weird to hear it either, I was named after my grandmother Trinidad (Spanish for Trinity, bible thing), who passed away when my dad was about my age. I don't like people to call me that, so if you're going to refer to me by my real name, please use Trini. When I was a child I despised that name until my teens, because it's a grandma sounding name. And of course, people just CAN'T hold themselves and ask me "where's Tobago?", but well...

Nice to meet you :)

@ Sirimono: Don't worry - it's hard to avoid the Christianity while choosing names here in European area. :P

Quote from: "Wikipedia"
Der weibliche Vorname Anja ist eine russische Koseform von Anna/Anne. Er bedeutet übersetzt Gnade bzw die Begnadete.
-> Anna: Nach katholischer und orthodoxer Überlieferung ist Anna (hebräisch Hannah) der Name der Großmutter von Jesus Christus, der Mutter Marias und Gattin Joachims (hebräisch Jojakim).


Translated (roughly :lol:): The female name Anja is the russian term of endearment from Anna/Anne. It means blessing or the blessed.
-> Anna: According to Catholic and Orthodox lores Anna (Hebrew "Hannah") is the name of Jesus Christ's grandmother, Mary's mother and Joachim's (Hebrew "Jojakim") wife.

:P I'm Jesus' granny! Yay!

:shock: Wait! My father's name is Joachim! My father is my husband? Ewwwwwwwww!!!!! :(

hey but most european names come from the christianity or latin/greek.
I think it's extremely interesting to research names actually  :o

my name is just especially bad because it's not just the name of a person appearing in the bible... it means translated "the christian". My name states that i must be christian and of no other belief :(

It is a common but old-fashioned, i think.

Sigrid comes from the rather northern parts of europe, scandinavia.

It means something like the pretty victory (german sieg = victory)

the male form is Sigfried?

Really? Well how about... Andrea Bochelli or however you spell it? The opera singer, or whoever? That's a he. But he's Italian as well... And I've never met a person in Finland who is a he called Andrea. Hmm.

And Andrea Pirlo!

Joonas desu. Yoroshiku onegaishimasu!

So, it's a pretty common Finnish man's first name, which BTW comes from a hebrew word יוֹנָה (jonah), meaning a dove.

Hehe.  :D

Unfortunately - no, it was for one of the minor women magazines which - I think - don't have any internet version. And it was almost 5 years ago, anyway. :D
I did one more in winter 2005 (? probably), which was for a Polish gay magazine and that was online for some time, at least I think so. But probably not anymore. Will check.  :wink:

Remember "Deant note" anime - they say "eru" instead "L"~

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lada Yes, it is.:wink: And don't worry, I got used to it - people often have associations like this when they hear my name for the first time. :D

And it's not actually true that it's diffucult for Japanese to pronounce "l", they just don't see the difference between "l" and "r", so they mix its usage. :wink:

Well I also signed up with my real name. :P I do use nicknames sometimes but it's annoying when you get tired of them but are stuck with it because that's the way people know you now. When I use my real name, there's no point getting tired of it since it won't go away anyway. ;D

So, I'm Nathalie. ;) With an "h" - I don't think it'll be a problem here but most American/British people tend to write my name without one. :-\

Nice thread) It's interesting to learn new names from various states.
I'm kinda lazy to make up nicknames for myself, hence my name is Victoria *in my country it's been pronounced as 'Victorija* which means 'victory,' but my relatives often call me Vita --'life' in Latin-- 'cause once they'be been told it was a short version for my official name xD I don't mind this weird mistake though, because I like both meanings, as well as duality.
