Beverly, which originated from the term “beaver meadow” and has historical usage
I have questions
Like, “Beverly, are you free Saturday night?”
Extra apropos points (apropoints?) because Theophania is also Greek.
Yo, wtf? And I quote from that wiki article:
“The first known vending machine, created in the 1st century CE by Hero of Alexandria, dispensed holy water. This invention predates the modern concept of vending machines by nearly 2,000 years, making it seem anachronistic in ancient history.”
That sounds more like a faucet
Dispensed in exchange for a coin.
Similar to modern machines, Heron’s device required inserting a coin into a slot. The coin fell onto a pan that was connected to a lever, which opened a valve on the other end where the holy water flowed out. The pan continued to move under the weight of the coin until, eventually, the coin slid off. The lever would then raise back to its initial state and close the valve, stopping the flow of water.
Growing up, every kid I knew named Jason was a total fucking asshole except for one. Fuck you, Jasons (except for you, Jason, you were cool).
Now in the twilight of middle age, one of my best friends is a Jason so the universe balanced it out I guess.
I completely agree with this anomaly, but my version is Scott. Fuck all Scotts but one, he’s cool.
Confirmed. I also only know one cool Scott.
What about me? Am I cool?
Of course, your majesty!
Thanks! Knighthood for you
Hi Jason’s mom
My brother is Jason and is a bit of a nob tbh.
I do love him, and want the best for him
But he is a bit of a nob
Sounds like an ISO standard brother to me.
Jaaassssoooooooooonn!
Jason!
SSSSHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUUUUUNNNNNNNNNNN!
Don’t sleep on “Tiffany”!
Imagine some parents in ancient greece deciding to name their child Java Script Object Notation.
I’m sure many objected to that
I have a friend named Jason; he was supposedly named after the cartoon “Jace and the Wheeled Warriors”, only his dad is a bit dense and didn’t know the actual title.
So is Jessica
I’m 40 so half the women I know are named Jessica, the other half are Ashleys
And the other other half are Jennifers
Everyone I know is named Kim for some reason. Men and women. It’s confusing
Are you posting from Korea?
Haha no, but that’d make a lot of sense if I was
I swear half my highschool was Melissa(s) and Stephanie(s)
The sons of Lehi in the book of Mormon are:
- Laman
- Lemuel
- Nephi

William
Katharine
Don Carlos?
LucySo less lost interest in weird names and more Gary Stu

It’s so weird that names mean stuff and aren’t just a feel. How many cultures besides Americans have names with no meaning?
Basically all names have meaning if you trace the etymological roots back far enough - even American’s. In most cases, those meanings are just unknown to the people passing them down.
