What are the meanings behind the names Sierra, Sabrina and Samantha?

The orgin.


The meaning.


Your thoughts on the names...


thank you|||Sabrina- A name for the River Severn, possibly inspired by the Celtic legend of Sabrina, daughter of King Locrine and his mistress Estrildis, whose birth caused the queen to slay her husband and toss mother and daughter into the River Severn.


I think that this name is quite modern-sounding and is quite popular like "Sabrina the teenage witch".


Samantha- Heard. A name implying the granting of parents' prayers for a child. A popular name in the US.


Well, I have to say that this is my favorite name of the three, as this is actually MY middle name!


Sierra- The name Sierra comes from the Irish origin. In Irish The meaning of the name Sierra is: Dark. Feminine of Ciaran.


This name is quite feminine, and sounds beautiful.|||Sierra means strong and beautiful|||According to babynames.com (lol)





Sierra means moutian and it's origin is Spainish. I personally love it! It's very cute :)





Sabrina means from the river servern and it's orign is Latin. I think it is an alright name, but I don't like anywhere near as much as I like Sierra!





Samantha means combined name and it's origin is American. It's a bit too much of a common name for me!





Hope this helps :)

'born after much bitterness- joy after bitterness' - so that is wonderful.

How many different names/meanings for Void in Kanji?

I'm trying to create a unique name for a character I'm creating whose name is a reverse meaning to another person's name.





I asked a friend before about a name and he gave me "Kasumi", 绌? which in Kanji means "void" for the absence of light, but some weeks later I discovered that Kasumi means "Mist" in Kanji and another name I picked out for another character called "Shikei Kara", 绌烘鍒? which means "Empty Death Penalty" (I think, still learning Japanese) to refer to the character's lack of emotion and duty to perform her task without question or hesitation. However "Kara" which means "empty" uses the Kanji "绌?quot; which is what my friend provided for me for Kasumi's name which he gave out as "绌?quot;... which means sense empty=void but it's pronounced as "Kara" right?





Does anyone if there's different names of Void in Kanji or different meanings of the name Kasumi "闇?quot;, because I like the name and I fits with the character I have in made, but should I change Shikei's last name "Kara" to something else to refer to her personality?|||Shikei Kara sounds just fine to me.|||Thank you for the "Shikei Kara" bit, but that's my second character.





My first character is called "Kasumi" and "Shikei" is her underling. I was wondering if the Kanji "绌?quot; is pronounced Kasumi also which could mean "Void" as well since the "absence of light" is the theme of her name.

I'd rather chose a name that sounded nice than one that I deemed to have a good meaning. If it came down to choosing between a name that had a nice sound and a totally random meaning or a name that had a great meaning but sounded hideous I would definitely chose the nice one with the random meaning. So, based on meanings alone, I'll pick the ones that I see as most random so that would be Noble + House of figs for the girl and Son of the grey haired man + Near the reeds for the boy.

Is there any other meanings to these names?

Kevin and Nicholas





I know Kevin means:


Handsome; Handsome at birth.


Is there anything else it means?





I know Nicholas means:


Victorious; from the Greek Nikolaos, meaning victory of the people.


Is there anything else it means?|||You've pretty much got it!





Kevin comes from the old Irish name Coemgen -- coem means "kind, gentle, or handsome" and gein means "at birth." So in addition to meaning "handsome at birth," the name could also mean "kind and gentle at birth."





Nicholas means "victory of the people," just like you said.





Of course, names also have meaning in their historical and cultural context, so you may want to look up some famous Kevin's and Nicholas's to see what "meaning" their lives may have added to the names. (The name Nicholas was borne by a saint, five popes, and two Russian czars.)





I like the fact that you are using meaning to help you decide between your last two picks. That's a great idea when both names seem equally good to you; it often helps tip the scale a bit in one direction or the other. Good luck! I know this is a tough decision.|||Nicholas: victory of the people


Kevin: handsome, beautiful





Yeah, so the meanings I found were basically the same as you came up with.|||No, sorry.

Then Meiji revolution, known as Meiji Ishin, abolished the regulation, and all Japanese have to come to have their own family names.


We don't get family names in the context of which 'good' or not. But we know which names have histories. Tokugawa is well known for descendants of Shoguns. '----miya' is known for relatives of Tennou family, but this is just a possibility. And there are some distinguished business founders' family names.


Well, Kanjis have meanings and give us some impression, but it is not a deal. Family names are just a sign for a person. Family names used to be treated for a representation of their relatives, but now are not treated with importance.





We sense some beauty or easiness to write in some family names. But It depends on the composition of Kanjis, mostly its shapes.

Names & Meanings (If you Can) For A Story I'm Writing?

Writing a story using the name Kaida but I need a male japanese name that corresponds with it, her brother. Also a love interest (any origin) and including the meaning would be helpful. Also a group of friends.|||Maybe Ryu for the brother? Kaida means "little dragon" and Ryu means "dragon" so they correspond in that way.


Another name for the brother could be Morio which means "protector" and you know, brothers are always protective of their sisters.


I don't have enough info to give you a specific name for Kaida's love interest but here's a few names I really like:





Ryan - little king


Keith - woods


Coby - supplanter


Derrick - ruler of the people


Alexander - defending|||Akemi which means beauty of dawn or Gen which means spring ;)|||I use this website all the time when I need to name something (pets, electronics, characters, etc).

Do you think the meanings and story behind names really matters?

Okay I'm not a religious person so I didn't notice but apparently the name I want to name my son is the name of a Adam's son who was jealous of his brother Abel and so he killed him!





I mean, that's terrible, but do you think that the story behind the name really matters? Is something like that significant enough for me to reconsider the name?





The name is Cain by the way.|||I personally don't care about anything other than my opinion of the name. Meanings and things don't matter to me.|||Yeah I really do but I'm one of those like...OCD people when it comes to meanings. Like I would never use Kennedy, it means ugly head...how horrible. MAYBE if i really loved the name...like I love the name Brody. It means brother in some places but some it means ditch and i'd still use it. Depends on the meaning, with your example yeah I wouldnt use Cain.|||I mean, I don't usually think the meaning matters that much, but that's an incredibly well-known biblical story. Cain has pretty awful connotations, and I dont think I've ever met anyone named Cain. Maybe think on this a bit more?|||It doesn't make any difference to me. I don't pay much attention to the meaning of names or the story behind a name. Have the name Cain if that is what you want.|||It depends. The meaning of a name is definitely not the most important, but I would, like, never name a child Lilith or Azael because they are demonic names, even if I think they sound nice :)|||Yes.


I love meanings behind names but not the name meaning it's self.


I use names to honor people I love and adore! :)|||No, its historical, and think about it, its kinda cool it was the first son's name, If you like the name go for it.|||No It doesn't matter everyone is different ya kno he'll be fine but i think you should think of another name

WHY do people get so worked up about meanings of names?

UGH I'm getting tired of this Cra* over meanings


.


So what if you name your DD Madison your calling her Madison on the playground not "Son of MAUD".(Now that would be interesting though)





My name mean "my God is an oath" Umm.|||Along time ago people were given names and they were to live up to them. Just like in some places in Hawaii people are given names and they are meant to live up to them. I think it's pretty freaky to be given a name that could mean something potentially evil, and not think twice about naming your child that. But then again a name is a name. Therefore this is what everyone will know you by, so if you can it should be chosen wisely.|||Haha...I don't know why...I'm really stuck on meanings but my name means "island of the linden trees" LOL obviously my parents did not care about meanings. I'm over it.

Come up with characters and personalities for their parents, think about the age and stage of life they were at when they gave them their names.





If you want a realistic story, name them the same way people name real children... they don't know what kind of person their kid will be when they name them, so you shouldn't name them based on what type of character they are, unless their name caused them to be the way they are (like a bully named Leslie who hates his name and beats up anyone who laughs at it)|||Girls:

German Names and Meanings in Nazi Germany?

2. Jakob, David, Daniel





Btw. after Aug 18. 1938, only specific names were allowed for jewish newborns, all Jews born prior to that who had a name that was not on that list had to add Israel (for males) or Sara (for females) to their name.

German Names and Meanings in Nazi Germany?

Could someone help me with names for these Characters in Nazi Germany?





1. A girl, preferably meaning angel, prisoner, kind or beauty. She's from a noble family.





2. A Jewish German boy, preferably meaning hope.|||Your question cannot be answered. Most traditional German names are from a nordic origin, and names referring to religion came only into use in Nazi times. (Yes, earlier too, when Jewish people were also persecuted and killed. It didn't start with the Nazis, but with the first Christian crusade in the middle ages. Fundamental religionism has been the plague of mankind ever since, but that's not on topic here.)





The second name should be "Aaron", as Aaron, according to the testament, means "hope". The first name should be "Sarah".





These are normal names nowadays, and I don't really like to think of a regime where people were renamed just because they were from another culture. It has been enough of a trauma for me when my stepfather tried to convert my father's name into his, which I successfully refused when I was a ten-year-old before a family court. And they even didn't ask me to change my first name, or add something to it.





btw, my name "Alwin" is nordic and means "friend of the elves", or wizard. A good one, I think. I wouldn't exchange it for "Aaron".|||Try these websites;|||???
