What do you think of these interesting name meanings?

These are from my favorite names' list. Just looked up their meanings today! Would you name your baby these, even with the meanings?





Rhiannon "witch"


Desdemona "ill-starred"


Melinda "dark serpent"


Persephone "person-slayer"





Tristan "sad"


Randall "shield-wolf"


Hugh "spirit"





and this name, Aeron, which I made up as a variation of Aaron for a book character, is an actual name that means "slaughter". Strange!!|||I wouldn't really mind.


Anyway, gives the kid something to talk about with friends! I remember the point where everyone wanted to find out the meaning of their name. Some were brilliant, some not so nice. Even so, it doesn't trouble anyone.|||I'd still use Rhiannon, Melinda, Tristan, and Aeron. But Persephone is really pushing it, with and without the defenition. Sorry.|||Thanks for informing me on this. I will have to rid my baby name list of these names. I wouldn't want my child to be burdened with a terrible name meaning.|||your mom has an \RPG character?? anyways, the name sounds ok as long as no one knows its meaning...|||People who are named like that turn out to be serial killers?|||i like them a lot, actually!
