Well, they give me 1 star only
and they have the meaning wrong, very wrong.

I don't like my name anyway, I'd give it half a star if it hadn't go it in my grandma's honour.

Well, it only gives my real name 3/5
But it does apparently mean "Wolf Council." AWESOME.

Oddly enough, there's an entry for "Crow." 2/5, origin English...meaning: "Crow." Oddly enough...

Wolf council!
cool

I'm not surprised some people named their babies crow. I'm surprised it's so highly rated.

I have no idea whether my hypothetical daughter will be a little brat.
I will, however, require some sort of corvid pun on standby in case my hypothetical wife squeezes out a boy. Possibly Jack(daw). Or Rooky.

That name is awful, and sounds like if she was a boy and you sorted that out by chopping some bits.

My birthname is 4 letters long- it's not a contracted version.
No middle name either. I got landed with a shit name.

I like your name, even if it does sound like a euphemism for being loudly sick.

It does.
But the meaning's pretty cool.

My sister's name is an abbreviation...though apparently the full form is Greek in origin. Still means 'pure,' though.

I didn't know the meaning of yours
Oooh, in my shop today they had a large model crow. I saw it and thought of you, especially as it was covered in spangly jewelry.

I looked it up on Wiki- apparently the meaning is debated, and might come from one of my favourite goddesses. Which makes me like it a little more. κάθερος is certainly more likely thought.
