    My name's Gilad, and that has multiple meanings. First, it's a ridge of mountains that was once Israel's, and is now within Jordan. Second, if you break the name, you get two words; 'gil and 'ad'. 'Gil' can either mean joy (also exists as a seperate name) or age. 'Ad' means until, but when combined with another word, it means eternal. So, either eternal age or eternal joy.

    And, if I may, a few corrections...

    Middle name: Elizabeth
    Gender: Female
    Origin: Hebrew
    Meaning/Description: God's oath.
    Elisheva was Aharon's (brother of Moshe, or Moses) wife.

    Name: Thomas
    Gender: Male
    Origin: Hebrew
    Meaning: A twin
    'Te'om' is twin. Thomas is actually Tom, meaning innocence and bliss.

    First Name: Jessica
    Origin:Hebrew
    Meaning: god sees

    Middle Name: Michele
    Origin:French
    Meaning: Form of MICHAEL. who is like god
    I couldn't make Jessica into its Hebrew form, so I'll take your word on it. Michelle, however, is indeed the feminine (mostly) form of Michael, which is the guardian angel of Israel, a great angel of God and an angel of war, protection, etc.

    Name: Misha (but most call me Renee cause it's was my first name)
    Gender:female
    Origin: angel
    Meaning/Description: it's an angel from out of a book
    Misha is Russian, and it's the same as Michael. As to who Michael is... look up.

    Name: Sarah
    Gender: Female
    Origin: Hebrew
    Meaning/Description: Princess
    Now, this is blatantly wrong. Sara was Avraham's first wife, the mother of Yitzhak (Isac) and one of the Four Matrons of Israel. Sara is also the feminine form of Sar, meaning minister, governor.

    Name: Suzanne
    Gender: Female
    Origin: Hebrew
    Meaning/Description: Form of SUSAN. lily
    Rather, 'Shosha' or 'Shushan', meaning a rose, not a lily.

    Held by the heel, that's great, what's it supposed to mean. Was some Jake hung by his heel? Is being hung by your heel holy? How could this ever be decided on as a meaning for Jake...
    The Biblica story tells of Ya'akov (Jacob) who held is elder brother's heel as they both came out of their mother's womb. This is to tell you something of Jacob's persistence and strength, even at such a young age.

    John, Hebrew, means "God has given".
    The original form is 'Yehonatan', which means what you've said.

    Name - Faris
    Gender - Male
    Origin - Arabic
    Meaning - horseman
    And the Arabic word Fares comes from the Hebrew word Parash, meaning horse-rider or a cavalier.

    Iri: Male Biblical Fire, light.
    Or is light. So, Iri would a bastardisation of that word.

    I remember talking with a kuwaiti chick about ff5, and she mentioned how the character Faris should be kept in the Knight job class since that was what the name meant xD

    I can't tell you how funny it is that this name relates so much to me as well as how I came by it.

    The naming convention in Philippines is kinda... different. There is no middle name. It's either the given name, mother's maiden family name, and father's family name.

    In case of my name

    James Lloyd Redondo Atwil

    Can be written as:

    James Lloyd R. Atwil

    Where:

    James Lloyd - my given name
    Redondo - my mother's maiden family name
    Atwil - my father's family name


    Now to the meanings:

    James - came into English from the French variation Gemmes of the Late Latin Iacomus, dialect variant of Iacobus, from New Testament Greek Ἰάκωβος (Iacōbos), from Hebrew יעקב (Yaʻaqov). Cognates include Jacob [source]. Which literally means "grasps the heel" or "grasps the bottom". Remember the story of a Jacob wrestles an angel? (War Angel, can you enlighten me further?)

    Lloyd - variation of the Welsh word llwyd or clwyd, which means "grey" or "brown".
    Courage is not the lack of fear. It is acting in spite of it. ~ Mark Twain

    When posting, remember to post the Origin of your name (By what the site says) and the description the site gives. And your first name, of course. My name is Nicolas, and my nick-name is Nico. Also, make sure that you scroll down at that web page. They made it look like the name-list is cut short at 4.

    Name: Nico
    Gender: Male
    Origin: English
    Meaning/Description: Abbreviation of Nicholas. Mythological Nike was Greek goddess of victory and root origin of 'Nicholas.'.

    Also, look at some of these names that sound similar to mine:

    Name: Nicodemus
    Gender: Male
    Origin: Biblical
    Meaning/Description: Victory of the people

    Name: Nicolaas
    Gender: Male
    Origin: Dutch
    Meaning/Description: Victorious Army

    Now look at these two. >_>

    Name: Nicolas
    Gender: Male
    Origin: Biblical
    Meaning/Description: Victory of the people

    Name: Nicolaitane
    Gender: Female
    Origin: Biblical
    Meaning/Description: Follower of Nicolas
    Taa daa.
    You know, my dad wanted to name me Morgan Troy Truan, but my mom overruled him, so my name is Nicholas Charles Truan.
    Truan, by the way, means either Rogue/Knave or Jester in Spanish.

    Although mine, Adam... Obviously, referring to Adam of the Bible, and most as such. "Red Earth" or "First Man" or "Of Blood", primarily. Though, something slightly ironic I found...

    Adamnan
    Male
    Anglo-Saxon
    Name of an abbot.

    My last name's Abbott. So Adam Abbott would make sense, wouldn't it?
