Mine means "black eyed". I'm sure some people might be able to figure it out based on that alone.

>people giving hints for their last names

I can't even do that because of what my last name is.

Smith, Black, Piper, Baker, Lamb, White, Green, Silver, Porter ... kinda more interested in this game, thinking of all the surnames I've heard where you can't really give an etymology of the name which is less complicated than simply restating the name itself.

None of those that you mentioned are correct, but yeah, surnames which can't be given hints without giving away everything are fun to try and crack.

EDIT:

'A type of relationship' is the best not-giving-it-away I can come up with.

It is probably fair to say that no-one on UPN should ever be responsible for naming anything.

Are you trying to tell me that "Video Game Master" isn't the best and most creative name you've ever heard? Surely you jest.

My username obviously is Amourshipping related. When I joined I was so obsessed with Ash and Serena (not that I'm not anymore)...

Mine is just my old Serebii username.

Fun fact: I meant to name myself Zelphonse originally since the name was supposed to combine the first two letters of my first name and the first of my last and fuse it with the name of an anime character named Alphonse. But in typical Zelphy fashion I did it wrong.

I'm named after a book character!
...Who happens to share their name with a biblical character and LET ME TELL YOU if I have one more person ask me if 'I know my name is from the bible" I will acquire a bible for the sole purpose of burning it (no offense meant).

My last name's origins are convoluted and I have no idea what it means, but it makes for great puns.

My username is a product of my first chuuni phase but that was literal ages ago. It has nothing to do with the Pokemon Kingdra, and unfortunately setting fire to Kingdra is awfully hard and I have too much heart to ever burn anything Pokemon-related.


As for the original topic, there was a girl in my sister's grade named "Fae". She was the shortest student in the school by far and was part of the both-athletic-and-really-smart group, so. You wouldn't blame me for thinking that name seems a little too coincidental.

And then somehow we ended up with Zekohib
