    Default What does your name mean?

    Here everyone can post what their first names mean. If your a tightwad worried or paranoid untrusting I guess you can not tell people your first name. Why not tell people what your username means instead?

    My name Julio means youthful. It also refers to the month July i think... Its a spanish and portoguese version of the name Julius and Jupiter.

    JOSHUA

    From the Hebrew name יְהוֹשֻׁעַ (Yehoshu'a) which meant "YAHWEH is salvation". Joshua was one of the twelve spies sent into Canaan by Moses in the Old Testament. After Moses died Joshua succeeded him as leader of the Israelites. The name Jesus was a variant of the name Joshua.

    Johnathan - From the Hebrew, meaning “God has given” or “gift of God.” The exact Hebrew form is Yehonatan.
    The itching sensation is a good thing.

    RICHARD

    Gender: Masculine

    Usage: English, French, German, Czech

    Pronounced: RICH-ard (English), ree-SHAR (French) [key]
    Means "brave power", derived from the Germanic elements ric "power, rule" and hard "brave, hardy". The Normans introduced this name to Britain. It was borne by three kings of England including Richard the Lionheart, leader of the Third Crusade in the 12th century. Two German opera composers, Richard Wagner and Richard Strauss, have also had this name.

    Sweet, I am Brave Power.

    Connor can interpreted to mean either "peace maker" or "dog lover", both of which are very accurate definitions of myself.

    Well I just checked and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Chad_%28name%29&action=edit">the Wikipedia has no entry for the name "Chad".</a> Perhaps I should update the page as a shrine to myself and all the reasons why I am the superior Chad?
