I'll go first
Eric
It means "Ever Powerful"
My dad has a thing for vikings, and named me after Eric the Red. (Although we have no significant trace of Scandanavian blood)

From an Irish surname which was derived from Ó Cathasaigh meaning "descendent of Cathasaigh". The name Cathasaigh means "vigilant" in Gaelic.

Mine is Scandinavian. It means "young man" or "young warrior". My mother has a thing for Scandinavia, so both me and my sister have Scandinavian names.

Some of these are pretty funny.
Apparently Drew is Welsh meaning "wise." I'll take it.

Wonder if there are any names that have really negative meanings?

Same name here, I thought it was either "little king" or "little prince." Regardless, it's Irish-Gaelic.

Gish is a Smashing Pumpkins album that my aunt bought me in 1991.
I am ambivalent about the album, but it remained in my collection along with my other tapes. A year or two later some of my friends found it in a travel case with the rest of my albums. They couldn't get over the name of the album and named me Gish.
It has been my nickname since and doesn't seem to go away.
They quickly got tired of just saying Gish and felt that a full name was needed.
Gish became Gishman, and a middle initial and last name were added.
Gishman P. Fontaine or G. P. Fontaine
I use it as an online alias and my call sign for games.

I've heard different explanations of my name. The one I remember, though, is that it's Irish and means "to listen" or "she who listens" ... the idea being that she who listens to all, knows all.
(Yes I'm alive. I know you were all worried.)
