ArchivesRe: Kalman
in reply to a message by Nanaea
"...from Hebrew "Kalonimos", which is from Greek "kalos" fair..."
Actually, Kalonimos -- or better yet "kalonymos" -- is a a Greek expression from "kalo-" (meaning, as you pointed out, "fair, lovely etc" ans "onoma" meaning name (as in the word "homonymous").
Under such circumstances, "Kalman" may in fact mean "Beautiful name" :)
