ADAM (First name that my EVIL INCUBATOR gave me; I'll change that soon.)

Gender: Male

Origin: Hebrew

Meaning: The Earth

That's wrong in that Adam means:Mam of the Red Earth...as in made of clay.

CORBETT (Middle name; only part of my Birth name I'll keep.)

Gender: Male

Origin: English

Meaning: Raven

Not an English word...it's Galic.

It had no meaning for Reverence...

My name has a greater meaning anyways:

gender: Female

origin: My father

meaning: A feminized version of Micheal. Named after my father who died 3 months before I was born.

I'd like to see a webpage tell me that about myself...

Windy?

Um...it blows? I was born on a stormy night in November

Actually I was named after the peter pan windy but my mom thought it was 'windy' not 'wendy' cause she flies and shit she was prob drunk when she thought of that one heh

Windy is dervived from wendy which is derived from 'gwendolynn' meaning 'white browed' which fits cause I was blonde as a kid

Rochelle means tiny rock which also suits me (its french) although its my middle name its the one I usually go by

Damn site gave me the runaround.

KATHLEEN

Gender: Feminine

Usage: Irish, English

Pronounced: kath-LEEN [key]

Anglicized form of CAITLÍN

CAITLÍN

Gender: Feminine

Usage: Irish

Pronounced: KAHT-leen [key]

Irish form of Cateline, the Old French form of KATHERINE.

KATHERINE

Gender: Feminine

Usage: English

Pronounced: KATH-ə-rin, KATH-rin [key]

From the Greek name Αικατερινη (Aikaterine). The etymology is debated: it could derive from the earlier Greek name ‘Εκατερινη (Hekaterine), which came from ‘εκατερος (hekateros) "each of the two"; it could derive from the name of the goddess HECATE; it could be related to Greek αικια (aikia) "torture"; or it could be from a Coptic name meaning "my consecration of your name". In the early Christian era it became associated with Greek καθαρος (katharos) "pure", and the Latin spelling was changed from Katerina to Katharina to reflect this.

The name was borne a semi-legendary 4th-century saint and martyr from Alexandria who was tortured on a spiked wheel. The saint was initially venerated in Syria, and the name was introduced to Western Europe by returning crusaders. It has been common in England since the 12th century in many different spellings, with Katherine and Catherine becoming standard in the later Middle Ages.

Famous bearers of the name include Catherine of Siena, a 14th-century mystic, and Catherine de' Medici, a 16th-century French queen. It was also borne by three of Henry VIII's wives, including Katherine of Aragon, and by two empresses of Russia, including Catherine the Great.

Well then.....it used to mean torture...then it meant pure......what the shit?

I see, I must be Pure Torture :rofl:
