Okay,people.
I found this site by chance while doing some research,and since I have know a lot of people with unique names,I took a look at what was here.It was not my intention to get all of you so bent out of shape,and it is a disappointment to see such disrespect directed not only to me,but turned against yourselves as well.I wonder why you think you have to behave in such a manner? Hmmmm,perhaps you see something in me that makes you so uncomfortable about yourself.Someday,as your life evolves a bit further,there may come a time when you may see the world with different eyes instead of the facade you think you need to portray.It never ceases to amaze me that in a world that claims to want diversity and respect for others,that same world does not like it when everyone does not become a carbon copy of each other.Nanaea,you have much talent indeed,and if you truly aspire and desire to live up to your unique name,you must not wound yourself.I would cordially like to invite you to www.RussiaWorld.com,but unfortunately this site has been down due to some difficulties.There is a gentleman there named Devlin McGregor who you would enjoy debating.In closing,I hope that someday on the path of life a new direction may present itself to you that you had not considered nor expected,and some of these words will strike a more positive chord in your soul.A true goddess does not bestow negativity in her wake,and I don't think you really would want to do that,do you? Think what you will of me,it makes no difference.I do not expect you or anyone else to be exactly like me.Too many of us rush to judgement of others,and I realise that this impulse is difficult to restrain,especially when stereotypes and illogical misconceptions cloud our judgement.We are all guilty of this to a degree sometimes,human nature being what it is.I intend to study your people's culture someday in order to get a better understanding of your mindset.Perhaps in the future there may come a time when you may wish to learn to understand something that had not appealed to you in the past.I hope you will be successful,as you do not deserve any less.Your creativity may very well be your saving grace.Please think this over-it may not mean much now,but there may come a time when it will be quite useful.For now,I must bid you adieu.Fare thee well,dear lady,and I hope you find relief from whatever weighs heavy upon your soul,and your path becomes your true destiny.

Yep......I give major props to anyone with the dignity to leave of their own volition, instead of waiting to get their backside ignominiously kicked out the door.And Eagle Beak 2 wasn't really bad. He was just goofy! :)-- Nanaea

Eagle Beak 2,
Your comments about Alexandra are duly noted. The statement that the tsarina was domineering was not meant to be a vicious slight upon her character - I don't think she was a terrible person, though I don't think of her a great heroine either. Believe me, I am quite neutral towards her. Besides, as Nanaea pointed out, there's nothing wri=ong with being domineering.
You are welcome to continue to post here, but please refrain from accusing those who disagree with your opinions of having deep-seated emotional problems. I assure you everyone here is quite stable (well, most of them).

Scary Question.Could there also be an Eagle Beak 1, Eagle Beak 3, etc etc? Yikes!
vote up1vote down
I'm guessing that the "2" refers to the 2-headed Romanov eagle, emblem of the Russian Imperial Family.And, because the joke is worth repeating simply due to the fact that Eagle Beak strikes me as the sort of anal, obsessive person who is probably still coming back to see what people here are saying about him/her... Here's what I've posted already under "Potluck Eagle Bake":...even though they say "two heads are better than one"... After jamming the first head up his/her you-know-what, Eagle Beak still probably wouldn't have known what to do with the other one-- Nanaea

In her reply to your complaint, Nanaea posed a very plausible question in good will:"What's so bad about being "domineering", anyway? A leader (including empresses) should be expected to be a little bit domineering. Perhaps if Nicolas had been a bit more dominant, Russian history might have turned out differently. "Nanaea posed an intriguing hypothesis. Instead seizing the opportunity to constructively make your case, you unleashed an "ad hominem" attack:"It looks like you have a "domineering" attitude yourself-a bit touchy,aren't we,dear….have a nice cup of cammomile (sic) tea and calm down a bit….Then perhaps we can both figure out why you have such a negative attitude about me."The notion of "disrespect to dead historical personalities" is spurious and of no methodological value, unless one is raised in a totalitarian culture or is a ideological and/or religious and/or fetishistic crusader. To objective and enquiring minds there are no "holy cows," everyone is susceptible to evaluation and critique. And since your answer made it quite clear that you art not interested in debate, we all (independently of each other) seized opportunity to have some good-natured fun :P

PriaposLovsMaybe what s/he needs is about a half hour in a relaxation and meditation class (either that or on of my "offerings", huh?) I feel that this person is way beyond a mere cup of chamomile tea (even a pot of it won't help).By the way, speaking of offerings, what is Havana Club?Phyllis

I'm sure sou can concoct something for the occasion Gaia Euphoria (allow me to keep calling you thus) :)
Havana Club is a Florida version of a Hawaian Punch...err.. actually it is my favourite brand of Cuban rum. Probably what Bacadri tasted like in the pre-Castro days. Too bad you folks cant experience due to the US-Cuba embargo. Same goes for my beloved Ramon Allones Robustos.

PriaposLovs1. I shall try, but I don't know if the Maiden, the Matron or the Crone can, or will, help someone who is so closed-minded.
2. Concerning calling me Gaia Euphoria, I guess you may (I kinda went into a Gaia euphoria at the ritual I attended (oops :})).
3. Concerning Havana Club, thanks for the info. I'm more into some of the other liquors such as Stolichnaya Vodka, Jamesons Irish whiskey, 18-year-old single malt scotch (I forget the exact brand, but I'll let you know what it is when I find it again :D).Phyllis

Oh, Nan look, you got your very own "light to the path" from our friend Eagle Beak. How sweet. We all should take those word of wisdom with us through our journey in life. Uhh-ohh, please excuse me while I stick my finger down my throat. LOL This is too much for me, I come to this board to interact with very cool people who make me smile. This did not make me smile, okay so I laughed, but that's besides the point! Lighten up, Eagle Beak, you brought this upon yourself. I consider myself a *regular* on this board, if I may, a new one, but nonetheless, a regular, and I don't appreciate people coming on here and rudely giving their opinion. Don't get me wrong, all opinions are welcome and appreciated, except when they are rude and disrespectful to this board and the members of it.
Have yourself a nice day, Eagle Beak.

Ok I am lost! I agree with Sarahjeanne on this one! I come here every day to read and post messages and have fun! I dont know that much about names but I have kind of became a regular also! I didnt expect to when I first came here. But I noticed that alot of people kept coming back here and that no one was really rude to eachother. I liked coming here and being taken in by all of you. It is like having good friends you just dont know they really are! I know I am probably one of the younger people on this board. But it doesnt matter everyone is equal and we all have fun. I went to another board on a different web site and there where bitchy people on there and it the board got discontuined cause of it. I dont want that to happen to this one cause some people want to come and ruin it for everyone else! And sarahjeanne reading that post also made me sick. WE dont have problems, just cause we come up with new names for eachother doesnt mean we are mentally ill or something. IT IS CALLED HAVING FUN!!!!! I give a big HUG out to all the regulars(and anyone else who wants one, LOL)!!!Gia Nadine

Sarahjeanne and GiaYou both get huge hugs from me (plus one from your favorite deity). How many times have people suffered a "burning time" because of the narrowmindedness of someone like the initial poster? People like you make me feel that there is hope for someone (everyone?).
Blessed bePhyllis

Phyllis --
I couldn't agree with you more! Even though I'm still a newbie (and a very, very quiet one at that;)),I enjoy hanging out here and reading everyone's interesting, informative, and often hilarious posts:). It's nice to be reminded that not all people take themselves *so* seriously. So, everyone consider yourself hugged (yeah, even you, Eagle Beak--spending so much time and energy on a crusade to "enlighten" everyone must get awfully lonely!) Okay, going now to add my hug to the other thread;)....

High fives and major hails to all my homies. :)PriaposLovs -- cool rebuttal. And (as you stated) I really was being quite sincere when I asked Eagle Beak what was so wrong about a world leader being called "domineering"? Guess Eagle Beak just got too defensive to want to discuss it. :)Daividh -- you put temptation in my path with that Dead Romanov joke. ;)Phyllis -- one of your "offerings" is just what the (witch) doctor ordered! ;)Sarahjeanne & Gia Nadine (alias Diana Moon Goddess) -- You both certainly are "regulars" on this board now. Your postings are enjoyable and contribute not only to the information we provide those who come here seeking name meanings or opinions, your postings also contribute to our sense of "community".Thanks, gang, for being so cool. :)-- Nanaea
