Help[Opinions] All names come from words
in reply to a message by Aiver
It is not like the names fell down from heaven. People used words as names, just like my name, which means she-wolf.
And since "colleen" does not mean "girl" in English, I don't see the problem. Erin is another Irish name, not used in Ireland. Does not mean that it cannot be used outside Ireland.
"You sought a flower and found a fruit. You sought a spring and found a sea. You sought a woman and found a soul. You are disappointed." (Edith Södergran 1891-1923)
