Help[Facts] Well...
in reply to a message by David Brouwer-Ancher
First of all, congratulations! You have a big family on the way.
Btw, your kids are most probably from the Turkish minority in Bulgaria. I am saying that just to explain why their names are definitely Turkish -- no chauvinism on my part.
I have never heard of Ceria, and my guess is something was lost during the transliteration from Bulgarian.
Kader means destiny in Turkish. You can translate it as Destiny or ask the baby board next door if they have any ideas of similar names.
Muymuyn is the English transliteration of the Bulgarian. transliteration of the Turkish name Mümin - a muslim, or more generally, believer. I don't know any American names with that meaning offhand, except maybe Christian.
The girls' second and third names mean daughter of Chavdar (Tchavdar), granddaughter of Shibil. Unlike most of Europe and the US, Bulgarians don't have a second given name, but rather - a patronym meaning daughter of/son of... That's how you get same sex siblings with the same middle names.
I hope that helps a bit =o).
