Strangely, both me and my father share name whit a common theme. Both are related to christian myth and bot are french and english at the same time. Maybe your truly name represent who you are.

You din't find the reason it fit me so well, ill explain:
Nicolas mean "victory of the people", wish somewhat fit whit the fact i am a separatist/sovereignist from Québec. At the same time, its both a French and English name. Well-fitting, since Canada speak english yet Québec speak french. Its like beign torned betwen accepting that its my country and hating it.

ALISSA

Variant of ALYSSA

ALAN

Gender: Masculine

Usage: English, Scottish, Breton

Pronounced: AL-an [key]
The meaning of this name is not known for certain, though it possibly means either "little rock" or "handsome" in Breton. Alternatively, it may derive from the tribal name of the Alans, an Iranian people who migrated into Europe in the 4th and 5th centuries. This was the name of several dukes of Brittany, and was introduced to England by Bretons after the Norman invasion. Famous modern bearers include Alan Shepard, the first American in space and the fifth man to walk on the moon, and Alan Turing, a British mathematician and computer scientist.

So in essence, I'm a handsome little rock. hmm, I guess thats not so bad.

Well, they had my name, Loren, but it only directs me to Laurence, which isn't really my name but a shortened version of it. I'm not Laurence, btw. But having nothing else to go by, so there you go.

LAURENCE (1)
Gender: Masculine

Usage: English

Pronounced: LAWR-ents [key]

From the Roman cognomen Laurentius, which meant "of Laurentum". Laurentum was a city in ancient Italy, its name probably deriving from Latin laurus "laurel". Saint Laurence was a 3rd-century deacon and martyr from Rome. According to tradition he was roasted alive on a gridiron because, when ordered to hand over the church's treasures, he presented the sick and poor.


Masculine and a smart-ass. Only fitting.



heheheheh

They also had Loki, though I don't know who in their right mind would still name their child Loki. My nephew was named Thor, though, so I guess it's possible.

LOKI
Gender: Masculine

Usage: Norse Mythology

Pronounced: LO-kee [key]

Meaning unknown, possibly derived from the Indo-European root *leug meaning "to break". In Norse legend Loki was a trickster god associated with magic and fire. Over time he became more and more evil, and he was eventually chained to a rock by the other gods.


Masculine and still a smart-ass. Hmmmm.
