    In Russian light is "svet", and I am called Svet for short, so it can get confusing lol Also sometimes "svet" is used to say "world", which doesn't help the situation. lol

    Adam - hebrew, meaning "earth, created by God." How boring. Everyone's name seems to be derived from Greek or Hebrew. Heck, I have two Hebrew names.

    My name is Liana and its origin is both Armenian and French.

    I’m not quite sure about the French meaning but in Armenian, Liana means ~ to become more of and to go beyond the limits.
    In french it means "a bond." But it also can have the definition of the term "plant" or to grow like a plant, or vine rather.

    My name has no meaning, it is the name of an Armenian saint, Surp Gevork, im sur eyou guys have heard of him, or have been to the surp gevork church... but anyways... another weird thing is that i was born on the day we celebrate his remembrance.. .. quite a coincedence eh???
    Gevork=George. George= From the Greek name Georgios which was derived from the Greek word georgos meaning "farmer, earthworker", itself derived from the elements ge "earth" and ergon "work". Saint George was a legendary dragon slayer who was supposedly martyred in Palestine. Bet ya didnt know that!
