Hello, readers!
Let's cut right to the chase, shall we?
And as always, this is my weekly call for name-related books! Let me know what you're reading.
Reliance - virtue name
Repentance - virtue name
Salma - "safe"
Scipio - "walking stick"
Shearjashub - "the remnant shall return" or "he that is before the king of Assyria shall take away the riches"
Starr - "star"
Thankful - virtue name
Theron - "hunter"
Tremble - virtue name
Troilus - "Trojan"
Urien - "of privileged birth"
Uzziah - "my power is God"
I had reason today to pull out Ernest Weekley's The Romance of Names. Nothing like some early 20th C onomastic theory!
