This is the name of my middle school crush... And I would like to name my middle daughter "Maryam Khalisah Farhan" right after I name my first-born son "Muhamad Khaliq Farhan, Jr" and before I name my last-born son "Musa Khidir Farhan"!

This is a very pretty name, even though I prefer Isabelle more.

I think Isabel is a gorgeous name. It is feminine, aesthetically pleasing, and rolls off the tongue smoother than velvet. It ages flawlessly, as I can picture the name on someone of any age. I also like the nickname potentials, such as “Izzy”, “Belle” and “Bella”. Overall, I think Isabel is a wonderful name. God bless you.

I strongly prefer Gunnar. Why would you want something so violent to be associated with your child?

I can't help but like it, it sounds so warm and sunny! I like Julie too

Hildegund, sometimes called Gudrun, is the wife of Volstagg of the Warriors Three. She is an excellent cook and it is because of this that her husband is large and fat, something that makes Hildegund and Volstagg very happy. Together the couple had ten sons (Alaric, Arngrim, Einar, Gunnar, Hrolf, Leif, Rolfe, Svein, Sigfod, Thakrad), four daughters (Flosi, Gudrun, Gunnhild, Jargsa) and numerous unnamed children. At some point, twins, Mick and Kevin Mortensen were orphaned when their mother, Ruby, was killed by Zaniac. Thor took the twins to Asgard where Volstagg and Hildegund lovingly accepted them with open arms. When Loki returned, albeit as a child, everyone in Asgard turned him away except for Volstagg and Hildegund, the latter feeling that he just needed motherly love and affection.

Hildegund appears in Thor: The Dark World, portrayed by Claire Brown.

Is this akin to Freida/Frieda/Frida names? (please PM me if you know!)

Tacky to the extreme. Sounds like something Michael Phelps would name his kid.

The meaning of the first element was suddenly changed to "royal" in the update from December 2022. This is wildly incorrect and also baseless, as it is not backed up by Förstemann at all!

In his "Altdeutsches Namenbuch" (1900), Ernst Förstemann mentions Kunibert in the entry for Cunibert on page 379:

---

https://archive.org/details/bub_gb_doEFT5vbo2kC/page/n210/mode/2up (in German)

---

In turn, Cunibert is listed as belonging to the element CUNI, which Förstemann clearly states means "genus" (which is Latin for "kin, family") on page 378:

---

https://archive.org/details/bub_gb_doEFT5vbo2kC/page/n208/mode/2up (in German)

---

There is absolutely no reference to anything royal whatsoever. In fact, Förstemann never even included a name element in his book that resembles 'kuni' and has a meaning along the lines of "royal".

---

I wonder if the sudden change in meaning might perhaps be due to an automatic update of the name elements (or something like that). In the past, the meaning of "clan, family" used to be assigned to the element 'kuni', but at some point this was transferred to the element 'kunni':

https://www.behindthename.com/element/kunni (in English)

---

The entry for this element was created in December 2022 (same time as the name update), but no names were ever connected to it. That doesn't seem right... maybe 'kunni' was meant to be connected to Kunibert during the name update, but something went wrong?

---

Anyway, here are some other sources for the meaning of the first element of Kunibert:

This name is really common in Brazil among those born after 2000. I've met lots of people who named their sons this.

Is it ka-lee-ah or ka-lie-ah?

It's a nice neutral name. I can picture two little kids, a boy and a girl, both named Avery. And those two little kids would get along better — become friends, even — than the „adults” bickering for literal YEARS in these comments.

To each their own opinion of what they'd *personally* use, but that's it. What other parents choose and why is their business. Use a name because you like it, especially if it's meaningful to you, not because of what some old bats arbitrarily decided was "tradition."

If my surname is Imola, I would name my son "Ayrton Senna" to make him act faster!

I’m a MASSIVE fan of Helen and I really like Eliana so Heliana feels just gorgeous.

Bluey's mom.

HAHAHAHAAA SO SILLYYY! It's so hilarious when a name doesn't sound good in every single language 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣.

Maybe okay in it's time, but not anymore.

Pretty. It’s not one I would consider at all for a kid as there are a lot I like more, but I would be very happy to have a niece named Sabrina or something.

In the states, it's a little too associated with a former US president named Barack Obama.

yall used to have sherbet in your lunches??

This is a very good name for any child.

This name is a very good name for epic people!

I like this, maybe a bit more as a nickname. Maybe a nickname for Scarlett?

This is my middle name. It isn’t a big favorite, but it’s a classic, short, pretty name that works with my first name. No complaints. I might use it as a middle name for a daughter in the distant future.

I'm so close to choosing "Khabib" as my future youngest son's middle name but then, I remember the story of Prophet Musa and Prophet Khidir, so I decided to name him "Musa Khidir Farhan" instead!

The River Moselle is also the name of a mostly subterranean river in London, England.

Because this is not only a state, but one that most people outside of Alabama would associate with incest, I would just use Georgia.

Personally I don't think a name like this is very fair. A comment several below mine made me think. If you have this name, there's going to be an expectation of you from birth to always be lovely, kind and not show any negative emotions. And if you do get angry for whatever reason, people will make jokes about how paradoxical/ironic your name is. That's a lot of pressure to put on someone. It's all fair and good naming a newborn this, but newborns become teenagers eventually.

Maybe it’s just me, but i really love place names. This one is no exception. And it definitely works for both girls and boys.

Cute but a bit overappealing.

I didn’t know Christabel was a rare name, I know 3! But it’s a really nice name!

William Afton. That’s the only thing I can think of when I hear this name.

If you live in America...or really any English speaking country then uhhh maybe not...?

Hanan sounds beautiful.

Nice name.

This name has a lot of potential for add ons. Elena-May or Elena-Mae is probably my favourite double barrelled name.

It sounds good enough, but Kill Ian. Is the brother Liveian?
