side note, I do not claim to be perfect, just find it interesting.
What's your name? My weary friend's name is Leah... Is there more than one name that means "weary"? Why would so many people name their children after a quality like that?

The direct English translation of my name would be,

"A man who writes golden poetry on tombstones."

From the Greek name Stephanos which means "crown". Saint Stephen was an early Christian martyr who was stoned to death, as told in Acts in the New Testament. Another Saint Stephen is the patron saint of Hungary, the first Christian king of that country (10th century). As well, this was the name of kings of England, Serbia, and Poland and ten popes. More recently it is borne by the British physicist Stephen Hawking and the American author Stephen King.

great, my name, christi, is known as the pet form of christine. i hate that. my name is a real name, lots of people are anmed christi without it being a nick name!

if you follow it down line (christine to christina) it means christian. which is WRONG. christi is latin for christ (i.e. corpus christi- body of christ.)

Melanie is derived from Greek melaina meaning "black, dark".
