[Opinions] Re: BAs from the Alps (many of them)
Ah, sorry, I completely forgot to check back.Kardelen is a Turkish girls' name meaning "snowdrop", as in the plant.
Ela Ceyda is Turkish, too ;-)
I looked both names up and Ela seems to be a Turkish word for a "brown-ish, green-ish, yellow-ish colour". Ceyda seems to mean either "beautiful woman" or "she who wants to do good"; "good person".
As for Pham Giap Jan Gia An, I'd say he is of Vietnames origin. I know a Vietnamese guy named Pham, I don't know what his name means, though.
If I'm not mistaken, Jayden even made it onto the Top 500 list last year, albeit for boys. I have never seen it used on a girl before.
As for Laviana, Waithera and Fifehanmi your guess is as good as mine. Seriously, I have never encountered either name before and I have no clue where they might come from. Fifehanmi looks ethnic to me, but that's all I can say. Hm :/
