have you got an english name
 

have you got an pure and real english name with family name,in fact,i consider english names' meanings have only two kinds--male or female,so english names are alike,without too much characteristics,so i use the naming method in chinese character cultural circle,and name myself,PHIWIN WILLIAMS,PHIWIN is phi(losophy) add win,for my real name has a character哲,as for family name,i choose a common one,also,it is one of my favourite singers' name,he is ROBBIE WILLIAMS,(maybe i'm influenced by YAZAWA AI)and i list some most common family names,please complement
williams,jackson,johnson(ben jonson?),smith,miller,green,brown,lewis,jones,adams,peterson(petersen?)

Please use the space bar. It is very difficult to read your posts.

I don't understand what you're talking about. "Phiwin" is not an English name. "Phi" is part of a Greek prefix meaning "to like." It appears in things like "Phillip" which is a Greek name, not English. Sure, it is used in English, but it's not a "pure" English name.

Heck, not even William is an English name. It comes from Old High German "Willahelm." Online Etymology Dictionary

The closest you can come to an English name would be something like "Scott," which comes from Old English meaning "a Scotsman" or something.

For example, my name is Kyle Philip Goetz. "Kyle" is Gaelic. "Philip" is Greek. "Goetz" is German.

My last name "Wilson" is an English/Scottish surname meaning "Son of Will" (the "Will" being from William).

My first or middle name won't be of any help, seeing that my first name is a pet name (Katie), and my middle name is generally a surname (Lee).

Really? Huh. In the UK 'Lee' is a boy's first name too.

My real name is all English, save from my middle name which is Irish.

My nickname, "Robin", is English as well.

Robin is also a Dutch name :O

Yeah, I think as Kyle pointed out earlier on, hardly any names belong to just one nationality/language. There are many names used by various groups of people, and some used commonly in English that stem from Greek, Latin, German etc. I actually looked up a name the other day and was shocked to see it was very common in around nine languages, lol. So I'm not suprised Robin is Dutch also :) All I can say is the Dutch obviously have good taste in names ;)

Erm, French, French Spanish

My real first name is Greek in origin, though most people under 40 were given the name because of an America TV drama and think it was a good name from the American Pioneer days.

But my real last name is very British. It means "a wide path" and there is a town, and medieval tower bearing the same name. But many people think is it is an original American name because it is the same as a very unique and well known place in the U.S.

Name and word origins are often something surprising when you start to research their history.

My name is British,
Chris Hall
Its like the 7th most common name in Britain :D

My name appears to be Latin but is found in Bulgarian, English, German, Greek, Italian, Polish, Portuguese, Serbian, Spanish and Russian speaking countries :D

I just did some research and found that last year 612 girls were named like me in the US o.Ô

Now I got y'all thinking of what it may be, yeh? =P

My first name can be Welsh or Swedish (Hayley) but my surname is Smith, which is of course 100% British.
What a strange post!

i love the history behind my name :)
my name is rudolf which originated from german "hrodwulf". hrod meaning "fame" and wulf is simply "wolf" so it basically means "famous wolf"

don't know why but i f*king love it :)

My forename is hebrew, my middle name is a greek inturpretation of a different hebrew name and my surname is an Old English cognate of a german term for a particular occupation. I'm an etymological mutt!

hebrew greek and arabian

:D my name is awesome :vsign:

Both my names don't exist in any other foreign language, but it has similarities with some.
One of it its written Cătălin, the "ă" pronunciation is something similar to the sound you hear in together, at the finish, just before the "r" is audible in the last syllable. The "C" is audible like in cat.
You may say it has something from the detailed here at baby names , but in my country Cătălin is a male name, Cătălina is a girl name.
Not many foreign people I know can pronounce it as it is supposed, well, to be honest, not even one :D .
When I go to Belgium, all my acquaintances from there, use a easier name and knowed in french, Alain, very similar to Alin, the short version of Cătălin.
