Whats in a name?

Blog surfing, again, I came across this interesting post that shows name meanings when they are written in other languages. Amongst them are:

Adam (Arabic) skin (I hope that it is thick skin!)

Alan (Indonesian) comedian (What more can I say?)

Jim (Korean) baggage.

Alwyn is not in the list, but I do happen to know that it is the Anglo-Saxon word for a faithful and trusted friend!
