I am doing research for my final linguistics project and I need names that mean "king"/"quin" or ruler in as many languages as possible. Can anybody help?
Here's what I have up to now:
Akhil (Sanskrit)
Alaric (Germanic)
Basil /
Vasil (Greek)
Berthold (Germanic)
Carevna (Slavic)
Cesar (Latin)
Cyril (Greek)
Donna (Latin)
Emyr (Welsh)
Eric (Gaulic)
Gospodin (the Bulgarian word for sir, also used as a name :o)
Henry (Germanic)
Jagdish (Sanskrit)
Lareyna (Spanish)
Leah (Assyrian)
Leroy (French)
Malka (Hebrew)
Melek (Hebrew)
Morrigan (Irish)
Queen (English)
Raj and others beginning with Raj-(Sanskrit)
Rani (Sanskrit)
Reagan (Irish)
Regina/Regis (Latin)
Rex (Latin)
Rioghnach (Irish)
Rhodri (Irish)
Ryan (Irish)
Shah and others beginning with Shah-(Persian)
Sultana (Turkish)
Suraj (Persian)
Tudor (Gaelic)
Vercingetorix (Gaulic)
Vladimir (Slavic)
Walter (Germanic)
Xerxes (Persian)
I don't need the ones meaning "of royal birth" (like
Fitzroy or Eugenes), just plain "ruler". Any ideas?
