That means something akin to "belongs to Justin" and the famous Justinian got that name after being adopted by his uncle Justin. His original name was Peter.
my sister's best friend was named Justice - it's better on a girl. some other girl names from my school - Honesty, Chastity (you can guess how well that worked out)
Names used to mean something, typically after your occupation (Smith, Baker, etc) or holy men and women from your faith (Mohamed, Ahmed, Elijah, John, Paul, etc). They used to have deep personal significance, now it often boils down to "I like how that name sounds". World can't end soon enough imo.
You're arguing in bad faith, but yes, this is unironically part of the case of why the west is falling. Meaninglessness in everything is being intentionally pushed by bad actors, so much so that it becomes the accepted reality.
But this is not the case.
Meaning can be found anywhere. You need only to pluck it from the veritable garden surrounding you at all times.

There are way more sources for names than the above, although it can vary by region.
Occupational surname based on your profession, or your father’s or ancestor’s profession, back when professions tended to be somewhat hereditary, which would now likely be the profession of an ancestor.
A surname based on a Nickname you or an ancestor had. Sometimes this can still be appropriate for a descendant if the nickname might have been based on genetics.
A regional surname based on a place where you or your ancestors resided at one point. This could simply be geographical, with the surname based on a swamp or grove of trees or hill,
Or it could be based on a specific town, city, or region.
A surname based on a saint, or holy person, or someone an ancestor was a follower of, including a king.
A surname might be patrilineal or matrilineal, and based on who you actual father or mother was/is, which is a system still used in some Scandinavian countries, but in countries like the USA, it now usually denotes the given name of an ancestor, rather than of a persons direct parent or grandparent.
A surname might also be based on a famous or important ancestor, which sometimes get modified over time, but which can still sometimes be backtracked.
There are likely other variations I forgot.
Most of the above are common in the USA though.
Geographic region or natural landmarks is the big one I forgot. My last name is named after a river in Scotland, and my friends is named after a mountain in Wales.
If it makes you feel any better for much of Ancient Rome there was only about eight given names, and most of the time within families children were just given a number or called “the older” or “the younger”. I do agree that modern naming conventions are gay as frick though. My generation it seems like everyone’s names were Mike, Dom, Don, Joe, John, Tony et cetera kids these days are all called “Brayden” and “Jax” and shit it’s weak pussy gay names you know.
No, proper nouns still have meaning. He just killed a man and broke a deal with another who will want him dead. I doubt he wants to see the meaning in anything at that moment, besides the meaning of getting out of town.
No, but he's right that Americans are too stupid to know what their names mean and don't have the benefit of being people who speak other languages frequently look like a European would so aren't used to answering these types of questions
It's pretty true. I'm named Charles, and you could probably bring up the HRE, but I was just named after my grandfather and they probably named him that because it sounded nice
Damn, you know a Charles?
Unironically, I have met more women named Charlie or Charlotte or whatever than any men named Charles. It's a stereotypical name but it doesn't seem that common
There is a very good chance that I'm the only person with my full legal name on this continent, and an equally good chance that is also true for this entire hemisphere. I'm not exaggerating. I will not be posting my name.
I'll post my real name because it doesn't matter because it's literally the most generic name ever. I get calls and contacts constantly looking for people with my name. I can post it here and you will never find me.

Names only "mean" anything in third world shit holes. Names not having an inherent meaning are a sign of civilized society where your birth-marked heritage is irrelevant to your title.
you haven't got that quite right
Joshua and Jesus are two different Latinizations of the same ancient Hebrew name, which would be more accurately rendered as 'Yeshua'. Joshua comes from actual israelites rendering their name in Latin, Jesus obviously comes from Christians to whom the name ending in a sounded too feminine
Pretty sure this is a somewhat of a Tarantino joke about how Butch's main motivation is his familial legacy (his surname) of soldiers and warriors, and it in fact means everything to him

I knew a girl named Tota Lee
Justin' time haha I'm not Justin though, I'm always late
I once met a guy named Sneed.
Or was it Chuck?
It's a Roman (latin) name, it means "righteous". Emperors, generals and historians had that name.
Justinian
That means something akin to "belongs to Justin" and the famous Justinian got that name after being adopted by his uncle Justin. His original name was Peter.
I grew up with a white trash dude named Justice. Honestly his last name was even funnier but I won’t dox him here
my sister's best friend was named Justice - it's better on a girl. some other girl names from my school - Honesty, Chastity (you can guess how well that worked out)
What father would ever name his daughter Chastity? Did he want a prostitute for a daughter or something?
idk man, but that's sure what he got

We should start naming gen aleph kids using emojis

You're israeli, aren't you
No but that generation will be under almost complete control of israelites so the name is appropriate

If you carry this line of reasoning on too far you end up with American blacks and their absurd made-up names.
