I'm an american, my name is meaningless.
I am very weary of putting my name up where all can see without earning me a nickel by going to my site, I'll give you my middle name though, like so many pornstars.
'Seth' it's from the bible and I'm an atheist...
If you look at the first 2 names, there is "Ted William" The story goes (told to me by my dad and family..) that my dad was on Crash Crew in WWII and pulled Ted Williams, the baseball player, from a fighter plane that had come in damaged.
The last name supposedly comes from a very small tribe of Miami indians that were in the midwest.
The middle names where donated by my granddads, and apparently 'edgar' means 'invincible spear' in ancient germanic; which is unfortunate as some incredibly gay guy told me this whilst a couple of my friends where around...you can imagine the connotations ever since.
Zane Sadler, though not as exciting as some of your names it does strike fear into the hearts of rodents....go ahead try it...it helps if you scream it through a megaphone......
Julian Daniel De Puma Julian the Apostate was a Roman emperor who found Christianity idiotic and tried to bring back the pagan ways. While not really pagan, I come from a long line of atheists. 'De Puma' was the spelling given to my grandfather (Daniel) when he came to America some 80 years ago from a small town in central Italy. It was probably originally 'DiPiuma' or something like that, but we don't know. Could derive from 'plume' (a writer) or the name of a village. People started calling me 'joolz' around 1992.
Jeffrey Allen Jonaitis. Allen was my great uncles first name on my mom's side. Jonaitis is from Lithuanian, but I'm also polish, Dutch, and German. My mom is a Schneider which is German and Arends is the Dutch from her mother. As far as the last names origin in Lithuanian its the product of Catholic baptism of sire-names and altered during the ruling of the Former Soviet Union.
Juergen Timm -
The "r" in my first name is silent - spoken like juegen.
Family name is pretty old german, comes in some variations and means carpenter iirc.
First name is Russian for Helen. Middle name paired with the first name is for my Great Grandma Elizabeth. Last name is a town in Denmark. When my great great uncle (I think) came to America, the last name was Neilsen, but there were so many of them that everyone was changing it. So yeah, if you know a Vinderslev, I'm related to them.

Justin and Thomas came from Justin Hayward and Ray Thomas of the Moody Blues.
My ancestors were frog-monsters living in the river Meisse in germany, that's how we got our family name.
I actually wasn't sure if it was Allen or Allan till around a year ago.
I use my last name as my nick because of my lack of creativity.
