I clearly stated that I copied and pasted it from the Wiktionary, and I didn't even proof-read it

writing arabic phonetically in english is always fucking weird, especially since arabic has many letters and sounds that you will never able to properly spell.

and fuck you and the horse you rode in on and your shawarma tastes like horse-shit.

Bassel only means 'annoying' in the Moroccan dialect, it does mean 'courageous' or 'brave' in classical Arabic. And it's also pronounced "Ba-ssil" or "Ba-ssel" in clasical Arabic.. but the pronunciation differs from country to country, like Montana said.

But your last name still means 'weird/strange' in any Arabic dialect.

I really love that our names have meaning.

Does this suggest that Moroccans are annoyed by bravery? Selma, can you confirm?

You do realize that names in nearly every language have meaning, right?

My name means "crowned with laurel."

Oooh, how very Julius Caesar.

Lol I don't think so.. I really don't know where it came from. The Moroccan dialect is very mixed. We got derivations from French, Spanish, Portuguese etc.. this is why people from other Arabic countries have a very hard time understanding us, but we can understand them perfectly, because their dialects are close to the classical Arabic, which everybody learns in school.

Affirmative. But almost every Arabic name has a meaning, it's not always the case in English or French for example.

Mine is "Powerful Warrior"

find an english or french name with no meaning please.

Actually, it almost always is

There are very few "meaningless" names nowadays, such as Laquatikunakisha.... I'm even reluctant to say Nevaeh doesn't have a meaning

That's because many (most perhaps) common English names are not English in origin... same is true of most modern European names. For example the name Jennifer is rooted in Gaelic (Cornish specifically) and means fair. Mark is another good example, an anglacised variant of the Latin name Marcus; meaning dedicated.

I'll take your word for it .. some names may sound stupid or don't really mean much, but still have a meaning nonetheless.

I stand corrected.

True.

By the way, what does yours mean, in Arabic?

quote:

Originally posted by Lira By the way, what does yours mean, in Arabic?

In Arabic it means 'secure', some dispute that it derived from the word "selam" or "salam" which means "peace", my Mama chose that name because it rang as 'pacific' or 'peaceful' to her.

In German it apparently means 'Divine protector' or some shit, and in Portuguese it means 'the fair' (?) Can you confirm?

I like that it means pacific & secure in Arabic. I'm all about that.

We had a great influx of Arabic words in Portuguese due to cultural exchange, and your name is fairly popular around here... but, no, it doesn't have a meaning in Portuguese as far as I know. I just looked it up on the dictionary, but nothing came up

Nice meaning, by the way.
