What is your first name?

<p>I’m Michelle</p>

<p>My name is Michelle,too…and I love your SN, I am also an ebony queen…</p>

<p>Yasmin. I always thought my name was the one cool thing my parents gave me…lol. My middle name…that’s something else</p>

<p>I’m Acacia</p>

<p>You all have unique and exotic names…I really like the names Acacia and Yasmin. I wonder what they mean? I’m feeling too lazy to go and look it up.</p>

<p>I can tell you what Acacia is if you want. Um…it’s actually a tree (giraffes eat them!). I know stupid. But it has a biblical background. The Arc of the Covenant, and the Crown of thorns were made of Acacia wood. It’s supposedly symbolizes immortality because if you plant a branch from an Acacia tree, a new tree will grow.</p>

<p>I love your name, Acacia! It’s so pretty</p>

<p>Thank you MissMichelle! I always hated it growing up…no one could say it or spell it but now it’s nice!</p>

<p>Michael here!</p>

<p>Aidan is Gaelic, meaning Flame. I always thought that was really cool. And I like the name too. I probably won’t name a kid it though, as Irish/Gaelic names are usually associated with non-Jewish people, and although I’d never give my kid an obviously Jewish name, I’m Jewish, so idk, I feel it’s just weird. </p>

<p>My name’s Alexandra. I’m surprised I’m the first one. There’s like 6 Alexandras in my grade. I like my name but it gets annoying when people for some reason find it hard to pronounce, or they spell it wrong (Alexandria, sometimes Alexander.) Also, when I need my name for a retaurant or something, Alexandra takes a surprising amount of time to say, and is usually misheard over the phone, or even to people right in front of me, when I introduce myself. So I usually go by Alex, as people tend to lapse into calling me Alex anyway. I like it though. It’s long enough to be sorta official and it sounds pretty when people actually call me Alexandra. Also, I have a lot of possible nicknames :slight_smile: My name means “protector of men,” which I always thought was cool.</p>

<p>i just finished watching this vh1 show on odd names celebrities named their kids … here are some of the names i remembered:
pilot inspektor (first name) reisgraf lee
peaches honeyblossom (first name)
fifi trixiebloom (first name)
fifi and peaches were sisters too, they had another sis but i forgot her name … the names sound kinda too ‘sugary’ or sweet to me …
but those are some really strange names, can you imagine the boy’s teacher … “pilot inspektor please anwer #4” … everyone would crack up everytime the teacher called on the kid
there was an old lady i knew at the nursing home… she went by “baby cakes” … it was … weird, we weren’t allowed to laugh
i don’t know if aidan will be outdated or not in 10 yrs though … cuz i’m only 16 i’m not gonna have kids anytime soon</p>

<p>Ami is first and Lei is second, but I like Ami Jean (after my grandmother). It makes for a cool psudonym: AJ.</p>

<p>Wait sr6622 is a girl??? NO WAY.</p>

<p>I’m Anne.</p>

<p>Haha, so I guess I have to make this message longer otherwise it won’t let me post.</p>

<p>Syed’s my first name…</p>

<p>but i go by my middle…Farhan…you all talk about your names bein butchered? Welcome to my world :)…</p>

<p>the first ‘a’ is pronounced somewhere in between a long ‘a’ and a ‘u’…it’s kinda hard to explain…
mostly i tell ppl to call me fur-han…fur as in animal…han as in solo :p</p>

<p>it means happy in Arabic :)</p>

<p>i like Resham… Ray-Shum…i think it’s hott…it means silk :slight_smile: (girl name)</p>

<p>if i could change my name it’d probably be something like Amir…it means warrior in Arabic and it sounds cool :p</p>

<p>I love the name Amir, too…Can anyone tell me what Tarik means and what language it is in?</p>

<p>Tarik means “who crosses the river of life” and it’s hindu</p>

<p>TARIQ - like the conqueror of Spain</p>

<p>Breanne, My mom want something different.</p>

<p>My parents named me Jennifer, after some girl from a soap opera. My Chinese name means “happy heart.” =)</p>
