ArchivesRe: a name request
in reply to a message by liana
You cannot simply 'request' a name, particularly when the name is a probably made-up one like Jorelle. If you wish to submit a name, please see the instructions here: http://www.behindthename.com/submit.html (you cannot submit a name via the message boards).
Please note that this is an etymology site, so in order to have your name submission accepted you will need to provide the country of origin, the meaning, the language from which it draws that meaning, and evidence that it is actually used as a name. You will need to provide proof of all of these; just saying it isn't enough. After you have submitted the name you will need to be patient - Mike C does not get paid to provide this site, and it can take up to a year for genuine submissions to be added.
Thanks
edit - typed 'submitted' instead of 'submission accepted'.
