So my first name means "of a noble kind" or possibly "ornament/brightness"
And my last name (original spelling)either derives from the name of a town in Germany or if it's Scottish (I found both)it comes from the name Alexander which means "defender of men"
So I guess I'm a Noble Defender of Men or a Noble Defender of Some Town or A Bright Defender of Men/Some Town in Germany
My first name translates to 'grace,' 'gracious,' or 'graceful,' and my last name translates to 'weaver.'
Depending on which etymology you go with, my middle name could mean 'pure' or it could mean 'torture.' Or perhaps 'pure torture.'
Ireland Oath of God To Be Awake.
I believe that translates to "Goddamn it, insomnia again? FECK!"
What sites are you using to determine meanings?

I just googled What Does Name Mean
Let's see. Mine gets complicated.
Father's joy
Bitterness...or possibly "husband"? Really? Beloved, star of the sea, take your pick.
Officially, Robert's son. However, there are also strong supernatural/demonic associations really nearby, so I don't fully trust the geneology sites on that one.
"Beautiful Mender of Regal Garments"
Heh.
My married name makes me the "beloved addition [of the] little wolf hound."
I am now picturing Joe howling like Todd from the Fox and the Hound.
Strix, ha. That's good.
OMG, sj, we're both princess farmers! ::high fives::
It's just... yes, it's a city I left for New Orleans, but it's a city I lived/worked in from the age of 17. In college, we would hang out near the finish line at someone's apartment, walking around the city in the first days of real spring and warmth of the year, loving it so much. Now it's a day of horrible pain and blood and dead and injured children. The hatred and evil of this is just something that breaks my heart.
