    If you put together all three of my names they mean either "tall, thin person with long legs, who is a free man, and who is like god" or "green, who is a free man, and who is like god", which translates to:
    "A free man who's green, tall, & thin with long legs, and is god-like"
    and it's totally freaked up that my first name is supposed to be jewish influenced, because of the "ch" in it, and the meaning is jewish, while my last is german, also my intials MFK could mean "Mother F#cking King"

    When Hitler became the 3rd Reich he wanted all Jews out of Germanyand dead.
    You see little one, Jewish peole live all over the world including Germany. It wouldn't suprise me if you had a Jewish first name and a German last name.

    Now you have learned something.

    Let's see....

    Sean-"God is gracious"
    Christopher-"Christ-bearer"
    Rossignol-"Nightingale" or "One who enjoys whistling"

    So I'm the Christ-bearing grace of God who whistles like a nightingale?

    Note: TehPaws is unafraid of the anonymous internet masses knowing his full name. ;P Bring it on!

    This is a very tough one for me.

    My last name is very unusual, and its something I've attempted to translate. My Dads Italian and my last name is "Orio". Yes. Pronounced just like the cookie. Yes, it sucked growing up. But, it became cool around High school because there were three other people I hung out with named "Matt". The name "Orio" became recognizable and over the last few years as an on-air radio name on our local alt-rock station. But trying to research where the name came from is impossible. Its either derived from the Italian word "Orario" meaning "time" or the spanish word "Oro" meaning "gold".

    So my full name translation of "Matthew Charles Orio" is either:
    1. Gods Manly gift of time
    Or
    2. Gods gift of farming gold.
    Or
    3. Gods manly gift of gold.
    Or
    4. Gods gift of farming time.

    So... yeah.

    I have no damn idea.

    EDIT: I wish 7 years ago I would've made my TFW name "Orio" instead of "FREEFALL". Orio=cookies and FREEFALL=Tom Petty. And lets face it Cookies>Tom Petty. (No Offense to Tom, but cookies are epic)

    Hmm... I wonder if my parents planned that...
