What's in a name?
So today, I was watching stuff on Hulu and saw an ODST commercial. Most of you have probably already caught this one on tv (the funeral). I really liked the music and went to see if I could find the song. Turns out it wasn't that hard.
After seeing my nephew's name in the title (even though spelling was off) I went out to find what it meant. I then ended up making a quest to find all of the names of my friends and family. Check below.
NAME - ORIGIN - MEANING
Ayden - Irish - "Little Fire"
Michael - Hebrew - "Who is like God?"
Colin - Scottish - "Whelp"
Derrick - German - "Ruler of the People"
Patrick - Latin - "Nobleman"
Joshua - Hebrew - "Yahweh is Salvation"
Zachary - Hebrew - "Yahweh Remembers"
Casey - Irish - "Vigilant"
Stephen - Greek - "Crown"
Jack - Hebrew - "Yahweh is Gracious"
Those are all the ones I actually searched out. It's a very big subject online and very fun to read about. Enjoy the song.

If I'm going Hebrew, I'm taking a different route.
Jack is Old English, originating from John (Hebrew) for "Yahweh is Gracious;" however, it also originates from Jacob (Hebrew), meaning "He who supplants."
I'll take the latter.
Jack - Hebrew - "Supplanter"
