It's very cool to see slight variations of my name throughout the world.  My personal favorite would be the Latin for Stefanus.  Makes me think of people saying my name in fear as though I was a powerful overlord that struck terror in the common folk.

 

[Tac]

My name is spelled the same in any language..but the pronunciation changes its gender or ends up slightly insulting of me. I *hate* that.

The way its pronounced in spanish sounds like the female version in english.
The way its pronounced in english sounds very effeminate in spanish.
The way its pronounced in Japanese is very similar to a word that means 'weak'.
The way its pronounced in Japanese sounds a lot like 'very round' (aka fat) in spanish.


and ive been told in Romanian my name is a biblical reference to a bringer of bad news.


... no wonder I fly a P-38.

My name is similar tac, Noel, in French Noél, same in Spanish. In Irish it's Nollaig. Essentially my name is Christmas because that's what it means. It's Christmas for me all year round. Guess when I was born?

It's also male or female depending on how it's pronounced.

I don't like it much.

Well from Wiki

Eric.....

The given name Eric is derived from the Old Norse name Eiríkr (or Eríkr in Eastern Scandinavia due to monophthongization). The first element, ei- is derived either from the older Proto-Norse *aina(z) meaning "one" or "alone"[1] or from Proto-Norse *aiwa(z) meaning "ever" or "eternal".[2] The second element -ríkr derives either from *rík(a)z meaning "ruler" or "prince" (cf. Gothic reiks) or from an even older Proto-Germanic *ríkiaz which meant "powerful" and "rich".[3] The name is thus usually taken to mean "one ruler" or "eternal ruler" or "ever powerful," etc.

Apparently I am Super awesome!!

I'll copy & paste later.

Didn't know there was such thing as a "Rachel Sandwich."  Looks pretty good, too.

Apart from it's Greek origin meaning Honouring God, I don't think Timothy or it's nickname versions mean anything in any other language. So I can't even make an interesting list like the OP.

[Shuffler]

I never trust anything on wikipedia. Case in point.... I didn't like what my name was in other languages soooooo .... I just changed it to Warrior God in all of them.

My name is from Hebrew meaning either "God Exists" or, my personal favorite, "God's gift" (to women).

Mark

Mark is a common male given name and is derived from old Latin "Mart-kos", which means "consecrated to the god Mars", and is therefore also taken to mean "God of war" or "to be warlike".[citation needed] Marcus was one of the three most common given names in Ancient Rome. See Roman given names.
