What does your "name" mean?

This really is very interesting!

Well, I think everybody here know my nick, because of all those translations.
I like this nick cause seems sweet and it combines with my personality.
Only one person in the world can call me this way (in real life, hehe) before cucumis. So it's more than special
I hate my real name (as I said in portuguese forum) cause it's very common in Brazil.

But is Daiane.
I can't believe I said that in a forum....

Amal is very common as well, I HATE IT TOO :s

I don't know what "menininha" means - I know it has a diminutive ending, but that's all I know - I don't speak Portuguese, so please help me out!

elmota, why do you hate Amal? Actually, I always thought it was a boy's name - there's a famous legend called "Amal and the Night Visitors".

Guilon, thanks for saying you knew I was a woman from my writing - that's reassuring.

Kafetzou,
Menininha is the diminutive of Menina (Girl).
Please, see my profile: Menininha.
I ask for translations in many languages.

I knew that you are a woman too. lol

Ah - obrigada.

I really always thought you were a girl Laura... Because when I first see a profile and there it has a link... I go see it! Curioussss... And I saw your Myspace... Or should be Yourspace?
Elmota your name meaning is beautiful...

Hmm - well pluiepoco still thought I was a man even after he saw my MySpace page (My Space page?).

No way...
Are you the one in a green shirt on the video?

Hi, I'm also new to this place and I might as well introduce me somewhere.

Ylva=female wolf
Gustafsson=son of Gustaf

Ylva is a quite uncommon name with only about 9000 women named after the wolf.
Gustafsson is one of the ten most common names in Sweden and it doesn't mean I am anyones son.

Welcome, Ylva! Nice name!

We all hope that you have a good time here in Cucumis!

Thank you Goncin.
I have already been helped (even if the answer confused me somewhat) and it seems to be a nice and helpful place this.

I'm sure I will enjoy my stay here!

My nick actually means ´cat´. In Hungarian, cat is macska or cica (tsee-tsaah). And when you want to say it more funnily, then you say it like see-saah. It´s a really simple nick...

'Cat' here in Brasil means 'very gorgeous, sexy and charming person'.
Gato (m)
Gata (f)
Gatinho(gatinha) gently.

Well, Cisa is near to gatinha I think... Hm.. I´ll change my name into Portuguese, I like it really much!

Cisa is very cute! Pretty nick Cisa.

Casper, aren't you gonna explain you nick?

There's nothing so 'fantastic' to explain...

Nickname or name? Nick name, many already know, iepurica = little (she) rabbit. My real name is Andreea, by the way and that means (I just have found out from charisgre) "boldness". I guess this is exactly what is missing from my character...

hi ım one of new members of cucuworld!

my nick derives from my real name; Handan, and so does my real name from Parsian. It means 'happy,cheerful'.

In some old Turkish movies 'Handan' was used for vamp woman thus ı hated my name when ı was a child. Yet after learning its meaning ı forgave it and now ı really like it!

Nice meaning, Handyy.

Thanks thathavieira,

nice meaning but bad usage-referring movies-
