Names and their meanings.

[KenpoGirl]

I took this idea from another thread. They were speaking of character names for books

Nightingale gave some examples of names with their meanings.

Girls Names

Adriana (A-Dree-Ann-ah) Spanish, Meaning Dark
Aisling (Ash-Lynn) Celtic, Meaning Dream or Vision
Bethany (Beth-anny) Hebrew, Meaning Life
Brianna (Bree-Anna) Celtic, meaning virtuous, honorable
Brenna (Brenn-ah) Celtic, meaning Little Raven

Boys Names

Aidan - (A-Den), Celtic, Meaning Fiery
Brennan (Bren-an) Celtic, Raven like
Casey (Cay-See) Celtic, Brave




Thought I'd Look up the Meaning of the names of some of my Martial Talk Friends, this is what I came up with......

Dennis - "Wild - Frienzied"
Doug - form of Douglas - "Flowing from the Dark River"
Ricardo - form of Richard - "Powerful, Rich Ruler"
Dan - form of Daniel - "God is my Judge"
Jason - "Healer"
Bryson - form of Brice - "Son of Rice"
Kirk - "From the Church"
Michael - "Who is like God?"
Tess - "To Reap"
Rich - also form of Richard - "Powerful, Rich Ruler"
Bob - form of Robert - "Bright Fame"

As you can see some of the meanings fit to the person very well, some are just hillarious (and to save my skin, I won't say which is which) :rofl:

and for all you Kenpo fans ....

Edmund - "Protector"
Kealoha (sp) - "beloved"
Parker - "Keeper of the Park" (lol well the first two are kewl ;) )

And I know you've been waiting for this one.

Dot - form of Dorothy - "Gift of God" :D Sounds about right. ;)

Heh, My last name means "From the dark forest" and my middle name means "From the dark town." So you have my name meaning, "From the dark water, from the dark town, from the dark forest."

I'm either really in the dark or I am Darth Vader.

Mr. Castillo,

Excuse me, but I had hoped that you and others would not be so thin skinned. I guess we are all in trouble now. :(

As we exchanged opposing views previously over a misunderstanding over what you thought was a humorous reply, I am very hesitant to reply here.


I hope this does not make the situation more confusing, but I would hope that an educator that does not like math and big enough to admit it and 'supposedly' be humorous about it could communicate better.

I still do not know the intention of your post:

Humor?

Threat?

If Humor, I guess I will go borrow a few bucks from Gou Ronin and buy one (humor) or ask for the members here to donate to me some money or better yet to educate me on humor.

If a Threat, then please sir that is the most humorous thing I could take your post as if I believed you meant it as a threat.

Previously, I took it to Private messaging to try to resolve our (my) issues, and all I got back was further attacks and or misunderstandings. You even replied that you would ignore a person who was so thinned skinned.

I am here by asking you formally in a public forum to ignore me for I will be ignoring you.

:asian:

Boy, give me a break. I am ALL humor, as many on this forum can, and will attest to!

Me thin skinned? Nope, I'm comfortable in what I do and would expect other adults here to be the same.

Communicate? I can do that just fine, plus, I can do one better. I do NOT chastise people on their behavior. I'm just a visitor here.

Threat you say? Why, there's no profit in that! There's no money in that!

Further attacks made? Nope, I haven't made any.

You seem to forget, we basically have the same name, so that's why I jumped in, just for fun.

Don't believe me? Ask Mr. Dennis Conatser, he'll tell you. If you can't believe him, you can't believe anyone.:idunno:

To summize, you're looking for problems that don't exist! (Not on my side, anyway)

[Goldendragon7]

Rich I think you and Ricardo have reached a milestone that I and others have also had....... LOL, The one problem with the net is that you don't "feel" :anic: the typed word. This is not the first and probably not the last post that has been misunderstood.

I do thank you both for airing out your feelings and hopefully come out shaking hands :cheers: all in good fun. We all love to tease (especially me!!!!!!!!!):boing2:

GoldenDragon7,

First, let me say thank you for your kind words and for your use of Smiles. I have, myself, said what you have said here many times to others and I understand your point and the intent of your words.

As for this post not being the first nor the last post to be misunderstood, I agree. Yet in all my contact with Mr. Castillo, I have had nothing but confusion and misunderstanding. He has never used any positive smiles only negative smiles to express his humor. To me, this is either someone who is not truly trying to be humorous, or someone who has made many assumptions that everyone shares and understands their own sense of humor. I bring this up since Mr. Castillo stated it is not my place to chastise people on their behavior, yet, he felt it sufficient to chastise me in a Private Message about making assumptions. This is not a positive step towards being understood and being able to communicate with people. The use of only negative feedback (smiles) or the duplicitous actions of one who states one thing and does another. As for Teasing, I have no problems with teasing and have been teased by many people here I have not met and there are those that I have met after being teased. That is part of the positive social interactions of this site.

As to Mr. Castillo’s sense of humor, I guess that this Non-Kenpo Person (* That is me, Rich Parsons *), is supposed to know that Tracy’s Kenpo is the joke of Kenpo? (* I know very little about Kenpo and the factions of the art. *) So this was not really an attack against me, but an attack and slam against another style / art? A similar comment made by me such I will ‘Insert most unliked system here’ all over you, is what I have should have replied with? This is confusing to me. Now, if this was preceded by either a positive smile as opposed to being followed by a negative smile, it might have been easier to understand this event as humor. I give the following links as my interactions with Mr. Castillo as being anything but positive. They might be sarcastic, and many might believe that sarcasm is humor, but I do not find it humorous. I apologize for my lack of humor at what I believe to be sarcasm.


First Contact: An aggressive Nuke Smile and NO non Aggressive Smiles.

I have argued (* Look it up *) with many a person on this board. Some of my favorites are Gou Ronin: We do not always see eye to eye, but we agree that we each have the right to our own opinions; Kirk: Who I and some others had a heat discussion or argument over a supreme court ruling dealing with the word ‘God’ and the Pledge of Allegiance, this did not leave us upset with each other; another great person to discuss things with is Nightingale8472: She has expressed her opinions and we have discussed much together. I offer these as people I can discuss with and exchange humor and issue we might disagree on, but not end up with the confusion and concern I have with Mr. Castillo.


I have no true ill feeling for Mr. Castillo, I only wish to no longer to try to communicate with him, since I obviously do not understand his sarcasm or sense of humor. As for shaking his hands, not an option, for I will not search him out, since I do not wish to met him. If we co-exist on this board with little or no interaction or at least some polite interaction than I have no problems with that resolution.

Thank you once again GoldenDragon7 and I apologize to everyone here for the misunderstanding.

Rich I understand where you are coming from I won't attempt to change that, but I really hate these forums sometimes for their lack of emotion which causes these types of misunderstandings. Hecks, even when humans interact in person **** happens.

I can't vouch for everyone's actions...... but having been in those positions myself I felt like trying to ease tension and mend feelings (if I could) I tried. I know Ricardo (since I talk to him all the time and have met and worked out with him personally) that he does have a "unique" sense of humor..... some may not pick that up and he may just come across wrong at times but I don't think malice is really intended. But .........Oh well, I know you two can live without each other or mend things yourselves if you want to in your own ways. Good luck to both..... an learn about these damn forums an how our real opinions and expressions really don't always come across as we actually are.

I have argued (* Look it up *) with many a person on this board. Some of my favorites are Gou Ronin: We do not always see eye to eye, but we agree that we each have the right to our own opinions; Kirk: Who I and some others had a heat discussion or argument over a supreme court ruling dealing with the word ‘God’ and the Pledge of Allegiance, this did not leave us upset with each other; another great person to discuss things with is Nightingale8472: She has expressed her opinions and we have discussed much together. I offer these as people I can discuss with and exchange humor and issue we might disagree on, but not end up with the confusion and concern I have with Mr. Castillo.


I have no true ill feeling for Mr. Castillo, I only wish to no longer to try to communicate with him, since I obviously do not understand his sarcasm or sense of humor. As for shaking his hands, not an option, for I will not search him out, since I do not wish to met him. If we co-exist on this board with little or no interaction or at least some polite interaction than I have no problems with that resolution.

Thank you once again GoldenDragon7 and I apologize to everyone here for the misunderstanding.

Hmmmmm, well, so much for logic. So you think you're too good to talk to me? And you say I'm not positive?
Yes, I said something to you, IN PRIVATE, but I'm not advertising in the forum like you are.

Remember, there are always to sides to every story.

Also, people who live in glass houses, shouldn't throw stones. I only throw pebbles, IN HUMOR!:)

Sir, yes you are correct about the private message, and I said upfront that I was hesitant to bring out my opinion here, since half of it was based on was private messages. As for being too good for you, I have not said that, I have tried to communicate, that I am not 'Good' enough to understand you. :asian:

There usually are at least three sides to a story (* Assuming only two people are involved *) The side of each person and then what really happened. I have never said you were wrong to say what you did, only that I do not understand it and I am confused by it. I also stated that I will ignore your comments, because of the above reasons, not because you are not good enough. That is for other people to decide not me. Yet, I am begining to understand your comments. Maybe this will have a positive effect and or result. :cool:

Sir, This is truly humorous. I can get a feeling from this, that is not negative. :)

As for Glass houses, sir my glass hut is based upon a playing card foundation. So, I respect your wish to throw only pebbles. :D :rofl:

Rich I understand where you are coming from I won't attempt to change that, but I really hate these forums sometimes for their lack of emotion which causes these types of misunderstandings. Hecks, even when humans interact in person **** happens.


Yes stuff happens all the time. And I try to understand why, how and where people are coming from, but I am human and many times, I just do not get it or understand. So I try to ask questions
and that is me interacting with others, in person or on these forums. :)

I can't vouch for everyone's actions...... but having been in those positions myself I felt like trying to ease tension and mend feelings (if I could) I tried.


But Sir, you have done much, for I was able to reply to you and to also state my opinion and views to you, which allowed others including Mr. Castillo to read that reply and allow further discourse if it was desired. :asian:

I know Ricardo (since I talk to him all the time and have met and worked out with him personally) that he does have a "unique" sense of humor..... some may not pick that up and he may just come across wrong at times but I don't think malice is really intended. But .........Oh well, I know you two can live without each other or mend things yourselves if you want to in your own ways. Good luck to both..... an learn about these damn forums an how our real opinions and expressions really don't always come across as we actually are.

Peace to all



Well yes, we can live without each other but it seems we cross paths in more than one forum and or thread. It would be nice to have issues resolved.

As for the personal character reference, that is always appreciated. Including your statement of knowing Mr. Castillo
and that Mr. Castillo may have a unique sense of humor. This gives me more data that I did not have. I thank you.

Mr. Parsons,

I think, thanks to the great mediator Mr. Conatser, we have found common ground!

I hold NO ILL WILL TOWARD YOU, AND RESPECT YOU, as I do all others on this forum.

I hope, that if you can accept an goof like Gou, you will accept me as a friend.

My apologies for any misunderstandings I may have created between us.

Respects:asian:

Well, don't look at me, I thought we were doing well with the names, and such. Then things kinda ran amuck. :(

Anywise I have a funny and 100% true story for you. About strange names and hidden meanings.

In high school, many enons ago, there was a music teaching. Now this lady was quite the looker and all the guys were gahgah over her. One of the reasons for this admiration is that she had quite the set of lungs on here, if you know what I mean. ;)

Anywise this music teacher fell in love, and eventually got married, and as tradition goes she took his last name.

From the moment when she said "I Do" he was forever known as Mrs. Titswiggle. :eek:

And I swear on my fathers bible, this is true true true. Don't know about you ladies, but it wouldn't matter HOW much I loved the fella, I wouldn't have taken his name, for all the tea in china.

The more I think about it, the more I realize that working in the porn industry would not be beneficial to me. I'm too much of a perfectionist.
