MICHAEL
Gender: Masculine
Usage: English, German, Czech, Biblical
Pronounced: MIE-kul [key]
Extra Info: Popularity, Related Names, Namesakes, Name Days, Websites, Comments
Options: Contribute Information, Add to List
From the Hebrew name Miyka'el which meant "who is like God?". This is the name of one of the seven archangels in Hebrew tradition and the only one identified as an archangel in the Bible. In the Book of Revelation in the New Testament he is portrayed as the leader of heaven's armies, and thus is considered the patron saint of soldiers. This was also the name of nine Byzantine emperors and a czar of Russia. Other more modern bearers of this name include the 19th-century chemist/physicist Michael Faraday and basketball player Michael Jordan.

It is up to YOU to educate yourself and then help your doctor plan your treatment. If you just sit down in front of your doctor and say "make me better" you are setting yourself up for a great deal of pain.

Eric
Scandanavian meaning Honorable ruler
However my parents couldn't agree on a name.....
My father wanted Ariel (Ah-ree-el) and my mother thought that was weak though in Hebrew it means Lion of God.
So my father suggested a derivitive of that which is Arik (Ah-reek)
Then my mother came up with Eric and they agreed.
Eric is my English name and Arik is my Hebrew name.
I always liked the meaning of my name yet never was into my given name until I heard my wife say it

Donna, a 2-syllable girl's name of Latin/Italian origin, means: Lady; busy
Gender: Feminine
Usage: English
Pronounced: DAHN-a [key]
Means "lady" in Italian. It is also used as a feminine form of DONALD.
Carole, a 2-syllable girl's name of French/Gaelic origin, means: Joyous song; strong

Sounds about right...Although the "lady" part is highly questionable

Mine: Bob
Gender: Male
Usage: This is a laugher! My mother must have had a difficult or labor intensive childbirth with me to name me Bob. Reckon she did it out of spite knowing thousands and thousands of other boys were named Bob.
Additional Usage Info: To drive you nuts. Try this: Walk into the back of a room with 30 plus males and say: "Hey Bob". Count how many wrench their necks turning back to see if you're talking to them individually.
Other Useless Additional Info: So many Bobs, most have resorted to adding additional letters to their Bob name, i.e., Bobw, BobG, Bob P, and so on. I've had to add numbers to the back of my name just for individuality purposes. Note - This is a little plagarism (sp) from SteCo....sorry Steve, couldn't resist.
Fortunate Aspects Of The Bob Name: Mom could have added a second "O" between the Bs. Thank goodness she didn't think of that. Also, the name sounds the same spelled backwards or forwards.
Have A Great Day All!
From,
Bob

Hey Bob(s) click this
http://thebobclub.com/
I don’t usually go by the name Bob. Only when I need to hide something. I usually use my real name.
ROBERT
Gender: Masculine
Usage: English, French, Scandinavian, Czech, Russian
Other Scripts: Роберт (Russian)
Pronounced: RAH-burt (English), ro-BER (French
Comments:
Most popular boys name from 1920 to 1939.
Means "bright fame", derived from the Germanic elements hrod "fame" and beraht "bright". Robert also is derived from the french "roi" meaning king or royal. So adding to the base form, the name Robert also means, "royal brightness".
The Normans introduced this name to Britain. It belonged to three kings of Scotland, including Robert the Bruce who restored the independence of Scotland from England in the 14th century. Also, Robert E. Lee was the commander of the Confederate army during the American Civil War (also known to those below the Mason-Dixon as the War of Northern Aggression).

Pamela
The name was invented in the 16th century by the poet Sir Philip Sidney for use in his poem 'Arcadia'. He possibly intended it to mean "all sweetness" from Greek παν (pan) "all" and μελι (meli) "honey".
Duh.....the link didn't show up when I first read this thread (dam slow dialup) so I didn't answer it correctly. Imagine that sweet Pam
