My name is Ethan Garrett McCarthy.

Ethan is a Hebrew name that means "strength." Ethan the Ezrahite was one of King Soloman's wise men. He wrote Psalm 89 (88).

Garrett is an English name that means "powerful with a spear."

McCarthy (Mac Carthaigh) is two words that is literally translated "Son" and "loving." It means "Son of the Loved One." The first Mac Cartheigh, Muireadhach mac Carthaigh, had seven wives from different regions of the world including one from Egypt. That is why there are so many damn McCarthys. Two of his sons, Cormac and Tadgh, adopted the name MacCarthy.

De Vries

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jump to: navigation, search
De Vries is one of the most common Dutch surnames. It indicates a geograpical origin: "Vriesland" is an old spelling of the Dutch province of Friesland (Frisia). Hence, "De Vries" means "The Frisian". The name has been morphed abroad to "DeVries", "deVries", or "Devries".



my first name being Jacob comes from Hebrew and yeah....

Delaney

Katie: Greek for pure, virginal (ha!)
Maureen: Irish for "wished-for child"
Delaney: Old Irish Ó Dúbhshláine, derived from the word dubh meaning "dark or black", and the name of the river Slaine (Slaney). Alternatively, the second element may be slan meaning "defiance". The first bearers of this surname were a sept within the areas now known as Laois and Kilkenny, though they probably had migrated westward to this area from the Wicklow / Enniscorthy / Wexford area, due to their original proximity to the Slaney River. The most famous person to bear this name was a Church of Ireland clergyman and close friend of Jonathan Swift: Patrick Delaney (1685-1768). (From some random website)

For whoever was named Diego:

My cousin's name is Thiago (Portuguese), and we were searching for which Disciple it was. We finally found out: James.

I mean really, James and Thiago?? Where's the similarity there!?
