Unsurprisingly my name and it's meaning are almost identical. Desiree=Desired. ONE letter difference <.< Guess I'd be something people wanted eh? Like candy.
Unfortunately, my name isn't listed on that site you provided! <3 The closest is Skyla, which means 'learned one'.

Upon looking elsewhere my name's origin is apparently Norse and means 'Cloud'. It's also the name of an Irish island! xD

I'm not quite sure that this would all make up character wise...but I like it!
Shane means 'god is gracious,' so I'd get the name Erurainion.
Brandon

Brandon means "Sword" apparently, and translates to "Megildur" in elvish.

Which is pretty awesome.
Spy

Unlisted.

Even my name's common variants (And there's quite a few of those) are all unlisted.

I'm not sure how I should feel about this.

Very interesting. My name meaning is often listed as "Fortress by the royal meadow." Sounds more like a setting than a character! :)
In this list I'm just Truth, which doesn't give me much to work with sadly.

In RL name meanings though I'm a Noble Carpenter who is Famous In War. So you best show me due respect or BY GOSH I'll make a cabinet and take over your lands. Politely of course, as is befitting my nobility.

It's the truth.

Now hand over your taxes, momma needs a new hammer.

It does! Or perhaps it could give you an idea where the character could be from, what kind of place it was. Stuff like that!
Beriadanwen, meaning defender of men. I knew the meaning of my name before but the elvish version is so exotic and cool :D
Whoa, they actually HAVE my name!!! I usually can never find it. Apparently it means "gracious plum"--I am gracious, and purple is (one of) my favorite colors. I also like plums...

My Elvish name would be: Rainyaviel. I could see a character being called Rain for short. (I do actually have a character named Raine but he's not listed on RPR and he's not an elf.) Ooops, and now I've got a story idea....ugh.

Interesting! Bookmarked these.
Well combining first and middle... I'd be a Cushion that is well born.. Nedhudir Eithelonnen. Not sure how I'd pull off a well born cushion but it is what it is haha.
My name, Nathan, means 'Gift', though I more often use the longer meaning of Nathaniel - God has Given or Gift of God, so I'm not sure how I'd RP that.

In Elvish, I'd be Antien/Eruantien.

Oddly enough, according to this site my brother's name also translates as 'Gift of God'.

Hm, now that I think about it my name's meaning is rather apt, since I was born very premature and I could very well have died... If that's not a 'Gift from God' I don't know what is.
PF, Grace...is Grace. My name doubles as a generic noun, my middle name is roughly "light," and my last name literally translates to "of the meadow." Which is probably the most frolic-in-the-fields, daisy-chain weaving name. I can do that.

Grace becomes Eruanna or Erulissë, and this site entertains me far more than it probably should. Hippy elf.
My username translates to 'an evil death'... and my RL name's meaning is both too obvious to bother with and too boring to think of RPing as. My last name's meaning is a bit more interesting tbh (comes out to 'assistant of the high priest'.
Sarah: princess. Kind of lame...would prefer something along the lines of "rose"
A princess would be easier to play as, than a plant, I believe~

I dunno! If you know what sylvari are then you could play as something like that haha.

Plant people always fascinated me. They're so cute. c:.
