Mine really wasn't either, they twisted it to make it work - also it's a version of my name. At least it wasn't the male version. UGH.. I hated reading the red pony.

 

[Curse]

my rl name is peter and umm my elvish name is gondo? rofl

 

[Akieo]

JOSEPH (m.) - Heb. 'God added'; Eru "God"; antane "gave", thus could be Eruantano or Eruntano; it also may be translated ?vit?ru ("God makes abundant": *?vita "make abundant"); it may also mean 'God lets grow', so Alt?ru (*alta "make thrive, grow")

Alt?ru... probably my new WoW alt name =p

 

[Zampy]

JUSTIN (m.) - derivative of Latin 'just'; faila "just, generous", thus Failo or Failon

that, is why you fail

 

[Ruler-jimbo]

Encaitar

Jodi.

The variation listed is Jodie. The male version is Jody.

 

[Merlyn]

I was surprised that Fiona was on the list...

 

[Fluffy]

Damn, Fluffy wasn't on the list.

 

[Artica]

KATHERINE (f.) - of unknown origin, but there are some suggestions -- one of them is: derived from Greek 'pure/virginal'; vende "maiden, *virgin" (cf. v?ne, venesse "virginity") *vendea; or v?nea "virginal", thus maybe Vendea or V?nea themselves, or Vendie or V?nie; it also might be Poicale (meaning "purification, cleansing"); it might also be related to the name HECATE (q.v.)

oogly :lol:

 

[Avari]

bump!!!

 

[Darein]

DEVON (m.) - from Gealic 'poet'; linwe "poem, lay", *carindo "maker, doer" (cf. colindo "bearer" or melindo "lover"), so Linwecarindo (there is no single word published for "poet"); it might also be possible to use only Linwe, as -we is a personal suffix, so we can get this coincidence


Well there it is, but I don't know what it means really. Does it mean I'm supposed to be a poet, or poem maker? Or does it mean I'm a "bearer" of like burdens and stuff, or "lover"?

I'm just going to guess poet. Except I don't really write much. I probably wrote like 10 poems total in my life.


Linwecardino sounds like some kinda honorary title, hehe.

Also for Darein (my variation of Darren):
DARREN (m.) - said to mean 'little great one'; alta "great", -lle a diminutive suffix, so perhaps Altallo
