Some people don't even know that there are names that are actually so similar to each other that they have the same meaning. So, check out some meanings of different names for you to be aware of before choosing one of them for your child.
Michael
This beautiful name means “who is like God”. However, it is nothing more than a variation – in this case, a French diminutive – for the name Michael, which in Brazil we know as Miguel.
Matthias or Mathias
This is an example where variation holds the same meaning. The name Matthias means “offering from God”, “gift from God”. Furthermore, this name of Hebrew origin has the same meaning as Matthew, as it is also a variation.
Manasseh
An unusual name around here, Manessés comes from the Hebrew, from the name Manasseh, which means “the one who is given over to oblivion” or “the one who is given over to forgiveness”.
Moacir
“Painful, hurt” or “what makes you feel pain, what hurts”. This is the sad meaning given to the name Moacir. This name comes from the Tupi indigenous mbo'a'su wrath, which joins two local words together. However, it is an underused name.
great
The name Magno means “great”, and this one is perhaps even a little better known. It originates from the ancient Latin Magnus, from the word magnus, which literally means “big”.
Micah
This unusual name means “who is like God?”. It brings an idea of humility, since this name refers to a rhetorical question that, in fact, has the answer that no one is like God.
marvin
This name comes from the United Kingdom and means “excellent marrow”, “maritime fortress” and “friend of the sea”. That old name, Marvin, has several old word possibilities.
Marcondes
Finally, this name means “son of Mark”, “son of the warrior” or “descendant of the great orator”. It is a name of Portuguese and Spanish origin, being classified in the science that studies proper names, called onomastics, as a patronymic of Marcos.
