Re: its meaning
in reply to a message by abbasdaughter
Yeah, I know for sure that all the derived-from-Claudius names on here are defined as 'lame'...oh those Romans, I don't know what they were thinking when they came up with these names. I like your philosophy on considering name meaning, though I personally think that if a meaning is unfortunate but not obvious, especially if it has positive assosciations, I can overlook it. It's totally understandable that some people wouldn't be willing to be as liberal as I am about it, though.

I think some of these names derived from nicknames originally, that might explain it.
