Help[Facts] Any names/surnames that mean "a person of short stature"?
I am looking for a name or surname, in any gender or language (preferrably Romance languages). I haven't found any on this site. It's for a pen name.
Do you know any?
For girls: Cecilia, Lucinda, Calisto, Purity, Agrippine, Philippa
For boys: Nikolaj, Alexander, Radu, Martin, Lucas, Zeffiro
Henry Purcell, the best composer before Bach! \o/

If a surname will do, feel free to borrow mine! Hopefully, if you write anything memorable, people will learn to spell it without having to ask... ;)
McGarr, i.e. Mac an Gheairr, Irish for 'Son of the Short (person)'.
For a first name, try Beagan, also Irish, meaning the 'small one'. It's part of the surname Beckinsale, now famous thanks to the actress, and from the Lancashire place name Becconsall - the halh of Bekkan, referring to Irish-speaking Norsemen who settled there in the Tenth Century.
