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. ;)

Now that makes me laugh.

For I rule the whole of my domain and all that I see.

Powerful, Indeed I am, for when, I want to order Pizza, I just pick up the phone.

If you live alone with your cat, then you just THINK you're in charge. Cats are insidious that way. :)

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.

Rich

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)

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.
:argue:


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:


Ricardo also takes this to the max....... so please ..... end any hard feelings I'm sure Ricardo never ment any harm :angel: nor did Rich.


Thanks guys
