Re: How do you pronounce your name & what does it mean?

Hmm, haven't we had this thread before?

Lago - Short A sound, long O sound, emphasis on the first syllable. Taken from Lagomorph, the big-eared blond-haired little creature that would heal you a little bit in FF6 if you got crap on Setzer's slots. Alternately, "rabbit" from the greek name for the class of animals that includes hares and pikas, rather than the latin meaning of "lake" that people more commonly attribute to it.

Ar-man-do. It's really my name. It means "soldier" or "army man."

A little less "special," I guess, but this is what BehindtheName got:

ARMANDO Gender: Masculine
Usage: Spanish, Italian, Portuguese
Pronounced: ahr-MAHN-do (Spanish, Italian) [key]
Spanish, Italian and Portuguese form of HERMAN

However, that doesn't mean what you said is a lie!

Ball-tee-er

and oddly enough, if shortened to Bau, is pronounced....wel....Bau. I cant think of how to explain it ><

Doesnt mean anything, just the first name that came to me. Sounds a bit french I think.

Just like it sounds, "Shining Ray of Awesome." Meaning is self explanatory.

[Jugil]

Re: How do you pronounce your name &amp; what does it mean?

Name: Jugil (joo’-gÅl)

Origin: iugis, Latin for perpetual, ceaseless

The first 'i' in this word is a consonantal ‘i’, which can be represented as ‘j’. Additionally, I didn’t like the sound of Jugis; so, I tried several different final consonants until I decided I liked ‘l’.

See, I always thought it was pronounced that way, but I wasn't sure. Thanks for clarifying. :D

Am-er-Oth. Pronounced exactly as spelled.

No real meaning to it. Cool role playing name I thought of when I first tried FFXI almost 2 years ago (but didn't continue after the trial).

When I started again just last year the name came back to me and I liked it. End of story.

Deeke

A contraction of 'Dee is something of a geek'.


And /wave to the git who made me add an e on the end.

Yes we have.

It's one of those threads that periodically pop up on forums like this. Not much you can do about it, except ride the wave.

Yeah, it's not exactly hurting anything.

Re: How do you pronounce your name &amp; what does it mean?

Sorry, I just thought it would be another nice way to get to know one another, an this is a pretty flame retardant post where you don't have a lot of people argue against one another, no drama and so forth. Kinda like that post about "your latest accomplishment".

This was ment to be a friendly post about people.

Oh and I've always thought Omniblast to be similar to Vegeta's Big Bang Attack, or something like Ultima from FF6.

Or Damage from DC Comics

High school student Grant Emerson suddenly discovers he is a superhuman with incredible explosive powers.[1] During the Zero Hour crisis, Grant's powers became the spark that restarted the universe after it was destroyed by Parallax; thanks to Damage's powers, the new universe evolved along natural lines, guided by nature rather than the will of Parallax
