Taking names (with meanings) from other languages and then calling them “bad scrabble hands” as if you’re not just mimicking every Brit who is angry that our languages use their Latin letters in ways they don’t like.
English names are all just jobs. Tanner. Weaver. Miller. Chandler.
They are mostly gaelic names pressed through a bazillion years of gallicization and Anglicization, of course people lose their OG context and miss the meaning. A lot of other cultures still have names where the og meaning is still evident.
I have heard that my entire life. Looked through books of names, and struggling to recal a time where any etymology was provided to suggest that the author didn’t just make shit up.

I only like REAL english names like Æthelstan, Ælfflæd, Hyglac or Laȝamon
I know a Brit whose first name is Classic
Hey now, English names can also be place names (eg Atwater, Beckham, Howe) or French (Beaumont, Granger, Romilly etc).
Gooner, also

tbf Kyle means “a narrow sea channel”, Aiden means “little fire”, and Tristan means “noise” or “sad” (lol)
every name has a meaning, they aren’t just random noises
Woah. I just looked it up, and my name means something cool.
My name means something embarrassing and I can’t say any more than that
Mine too really, but only if you have humility.
Wdym Fartsmouth isn’t embarassing at all
Tristan does not mean sad. Tristan is from Britonnic, it’s not Latin. Although tbf at this point that’s a millenia old mistake.
my name means handsome and it’s proof of nominative determinism
