| I haven't tried that with my rp characters, but I did for my book characters. It's amazing how well some of the meanings fit when I chose the name without knowing. _________________ ~Vae Victis - The Black Lily Blooms~ | |

| That's very true, I've had that happen to me as well. On a whim you look the name up and realise it fits the character really well m.m
I think here, the only ones who have real meanings in their name are James and Lenka. Kurik and Ehlana seem to have no proper word origin | |

| Well, Ehlana is just a spellin variation of Alana, which does have a meaning.
Kurik is a little trickier. It's kind of like Eric? _________________ ~Vae Victis - The Black Lily Blooms~ | |

| Oh you're right : o I didn't see that XD
Well, after expanding my horizon a bit, I think it's more closely a variation of Kerrik, which comes from the word Kendrick... | |

| I usually look up for characters' names before I create my characters | |

| I suppose in the loosest interpretation it means "Greatest Champion" and seems to be of anglo-saxon or welsh origin | |

| Aha! My lucky guess was right (I won't guess its true origin cause thats too tricky) It's amazing how he indeed is playing the role of a champion : o For instance, now he is like a champion that symbolizes the trust between the old guard and Arusia | |

| Well yes, it seems to be quite fitting.
I don't usually search for the meaninig of names, but select them more by sound and the way they flow. And how that flow fits the characteristics I gave that person. In the end, they do tend to fit m.m | |

| It's really funny, isn't it? : o Some studies suggested that's how the first names came to be as well (to certain part of the world) In other words, it's suggesting that meaning came far later (in certain part of the world) Which actually implies that some people had the name given to them because of how it sounded fitting, and not necessary considering the meaning of it Of course, the middle-east and Eastern part of the world had different ideas, such as name makes the person | |

| Another fun fact is that there were certain cases where the person had the name such as "Good and wise King" but that person turned out to be the opposite of the name | |

I watched a friend's daughter for him the other day, and she was obsessed with veggie tales. The songs are still stuck in my head. | |

| I never got into Veggie Tales. I was really into Adventures in Odyssey. The animated show wasn't great, but I loved the original radio drama. I still listen to those episodes. _________________ ~Vae Victis - The Black Lily Blooms~ | |

| I didn't really watch TV when I was young, so I have no idea what you're talking about DX And I'm beginning to suspect that the TV programme in the US and in Europe differed to some extent lol | |

| They differ greatly, actually. XD I watched very little TV while I was in Europe, but the contents of the shows I did see were super different. | |

| I'm guessing they are quite different. It makes sense that the programming here might not appeal to people over in Europe. _________________ ~Vae Victis - The Black Lily Blooms~ | |
