Name meanings: Bhavisha, Elnieke, Neshalin & Hunwoo
Hello - I'm a schoolteacher and I thought it would be a nice end-of-year gift to my homeroom students to make each of them a card with a picture representing the meaning of their name. I have been able to find the meanings of most of them but four elude me. I would ask the students themselves, but I want the cards to be a surprise.
If you know for certain the meanings and origins of any of the following names, please email me at missdove (at) gmail (dot) com. I am grateful for the information.
Bhavisha (female) - I believe the origin is Indian but do not know whether her family is Hindu, Muslim, Sikh or what. I have found a reference to a sacred Muslim text called the Bhavisha Purana but have not been able to find out what the word means in that context.
Elnieke (female) - origin unknown but possibly Dutch/Afrikaans. She is 'coloured' South African.
Neshalin (male) - origin probably Indian and probably Hindu. He is Indian South African.
Hunwoo (male) - origin Korean. He is... Korean :)
Thank you for taking the time to read this message, and I hope some of you can help me.
