[Facts] submitting new names
I'm submitting a few names off my personal favourites list that are not listed on this site.
GIRLS: Fayla- an alternate form of Faye, which means fairy or elf in French.
Breena- Irish for "fairy palace"
Mabry- alternate form of Mab, which means "joyous" in Irish. It is also the name of the fairy queen in Edmund Spenser's epic romance "The Faerie Queen".
As you can see, I kind of have a fondness for fairies; I used to pretend to be a magical fairy princess when I was little :).BOYS: Tegun- alternative form of the Irish name Teague, meaning poet.
Nealon- alternative form of the Irish name Neil, meaning "champion".
Opinions, Please! Someone please tell me if I've incorrectly defined anyof these names and they know a better definition!

'ColeThe definition you gave for Faye is correct, but it is not from French, but Middle English. I believe that it was spelled fae back then.Phyllis (Sidhe Uaine)
