Which is odd because I thought my name was a pretty common one, anywho here it is....
The name Brian is of Celtic origin and its meaning may be "hill" or "strong, noble, and high"[1]. There is no strong evidence regarding any potential origin, only conjecture, although the Gaelic word "brígh"/"brìgh" ("context", "elixir", "essence", "interpretation", "meaning", "pith", "significance") offer a possible root. Brian means a matter strength, dignity, and honor. Another meaning for this name is "majestic and powerful in Irish rule." It could also come from the ancient British word for "king" (*brigantinos, Brythonic *brijanin, Welsh brenin).
A common definition is " Noble, strong, virtuous".

Considering that my first and second names mean God has heard and Rule of the spear; I think the name I have chosen to take on when version two roles around will fit quite nicely

As per [url]behindthename.com[/url] my name means:
Nicolas
"French form of NICHOLAS
So what does Nicholas mean? "From the Greek name Νικολαος (Nikolaos) which meant "victory of the people" from Greek νικη (nike) "victory" and λαος (laos) "people". Saint Nicholas was a 4th-century bishop from Anatolia who, according to legend, saved the daughters of a poor man from lives of prostitution. He is also known as Santa Claus (from Dutch Sinterklaas), the bringer of Christmas presents. He is the patron saint of children, sailors and merchants, and Greece and Russia. Nicholas was also the name of two czars of Russia and five popes."
Therefore, my name means "Victory of the People" (I've known this since I was 6. I just like dragging stuff out)
