Your Name And Its Meaning

I've already done this. In 8th grade I had to l00k for both my 1st and last name's meaning. This time around they didn't have my last, but w/e. Peeps putting up 1st names anyways. o.O (last name is Knight btw)

RICHARD
Gender: Masculine
Usage: English, French, German, Czech
Pronounced: RICH-ard (English), ree-SHAR (French)
Description: Means "brave power", derived from the Germanic elements ric "power, rule" and hard "brave, hardy". The Normans introduced this name to Britain. It was borne by three kings of England including Richard the Lionheart, leader of the Third Crusade in the 12th century. Two German opera composers, Richard Wagner and Richard Strauss, have also had this name.

I still like the brave power a lot. ^_^
