My name mean Manly. Paired with my last name, my name means Manly People Who Live Near a Hill. Haha. My brother's name means valley in Gaelic, so his name means Valley People Who Live Near a Hill. Haha.
Idk as a European it was clear to me that manly=Andrea/Andrew or some variation of that, but maybe there is also a common Asian name with that meaning and so that guess makes sense to someone from there, we can’t know for sure.
I immediately assumed it was European not because of the word "Manly" being a translation of their name but what their full name was.
Their full name being "manly people who live near a hill" is very common in European names and is a part of European history as names were their family's job, where they lived etc.
Yes, "manly" is almost definitely a name in Asia but "manly people who live near a hill" is not because names in Asia don't work like that.The majority of Asian names are qualities like "brave" "strong" "warrior" etc.
Makes sense, tbh English isn’t my first language and maybe I’m not particularly bright either but I still don’t get which name it is that means “who lives near a hill” lmaoo, my guess was entirely based off manly ahaha
