Just as a heads up, I created this thread a few months ago and it reached 5 pages. It would be a shame to see the people who posted in that thread not get their names added because nobody saw it. The link can be found here...
My name request is "Schallman" which is a very common Russian Jew last name. Pronounced (shall-men)...not "shall" like "we shall be free", but "shall" like the shawl that you wear around your neck, or "ya'll" the southern slang.
Both of these are first names -
Kimo - pronounced "Key" - "Moe"
This is probably the most popular name on the island of Hawai'i, and lets not forget Hawai'i is part of the Union.
Ikaika - pronounced "Ee" - "Ki" like in kite - "kuh"
This is another extremely popular name in Hawai'i, as you can't go into any store without bumping into an Ikaika. It means "strong" in the hawaiian language.
