what's in a name?

just for fun, i decided to find out what the names of my oasis friends mean!
men.
1.trey-from an english word meaning "three."
2.joel-from the hebrew name yo'el meaning "YAHWEH is God."
3.robert-means "bright fame." seems fitting for you bob!
4.matthew-enbglish form of the name matthaios which was a greek form of the hebrew name mattityahu which meant "gift of God."
5.michael-from the hebrew name mika'el which meant "who is like God?"
6.patrick-shameless plug-from the roman name patricius which meant "nobleman" in latin.

ladies.
1.kaira-from the greek word kairos which means "specific moment in time."
2.amber-simply means "amber" from the english word that denotes either the fossilized tree resin or the orange-yellow colour! either way,lovely name for a lovely person!
3.linda-the name could be derived from several sources. it could be from spanish linda meaning "beautiful";it could be a short form of melinda or belinda;or it could be a short form of germanic names ending with the element linde meaning "soft,tender." all of them fit the person that I know!
4.karen-danish form of katherine.
5.sandy-pet form of alexendra,sandra,or alexander.this name can also be given in reference to the colour.

For Matthew, did you mean Mattisyahu? Just like the musician (whose real name is Matt Miller?)
