Kirk is the only one of European origin. And this site has by far the most complete information on many names that I've ever seen out there. And it's all accurate. So I doubt you'd find anything different anywhere else. Also, you ought to use commas because I had to reread your post to figure out that you were asking about three separate names.

Why wouldn't Tiberius be European? The Tiber River and Rome are certainly part of Europe.

James, in that form, is also European. It may be descended from a Hebrew name, but its form has been so altered from the original that it is as much European as not, IMHO. :)

Oh geez, of course anything Latin is European. For some reason that slipped my mind when I posted that.

Yes, James is European, but its origins aren't, which is what I was thinking about.
