Question to Denise...I wonder, in good faith, how anyone could name their offspring after words of unknown meaning? What if Keij'ne, Kemoi, Kenval meant, respectively, "elephant poop", "fermented curd" and "expired antibiotics" in Afrikaans?

Well names had to start some where.. Whether it had a meaning or you made you own meaning. Since this is the site for "Meaning of names" I was just wondering if I stumble unto something. Keij'ne was his brother and my name combine and Kemoi name just came to me. I made my own meaning. Those it matter if another language its was something profound. No, it would be funny to say the least. The kids love their name, everyone love their name and I love it. To bad you wanna think that there name could inhumane meanings. But fear not--to mean keij'ne means--"three souls one spirit"

Fear not - they don't!However, the well-respected Graeco-English name: Phyllis is unfortunately pronounced exactly like the Afrikaans word for Rubbish (vullis). Which didn't stop my Afrikaans grandmother-in-law from using it for her elder daughter (who died in infancy).

Well, the surname one of the most successful Greek financial moguls --a former boss of mine -- (http://bhcc.gr/directory_details.cfm?member_id=276) always raises eyebrows when addressing English-speaking audiences :p

By Jove! Or, presumably, by Zeus! I see what you mean ...In some local South African languages, a perfectly respectable female name is Nakedi. Pronounced Nah KAY dee, but that hardly helps.

Few more nuggets: every respectable TV and Radio commentator in Greece pronounce "Charlton Heston" as "Charlton EAston". That is because "Heston" in Greek means, how shall I put it, "defecate on him!" As far as Vladimir Putin is concerned...well, in Cypriot Greek a "putin" is one of the most private parts of a lady's anatomy.
