First name means a straight or small body of water separating two land masses.

Last name is most likely a change of MacGeachie or MacGeachin, both of which are names from the Scots clan MacDonald of Clanranald.

Katherine Eileen = Pure Light

Pretty cool, I guess.

Also my mother told me once if I'd been a boy she would've named me Sean Patrick which would have been awwwwesome.

My name's Boyd. Apperantly that means 'Yellow' in gaelic according to one specific site, but I've yet to find any confirmation or other ideas on the subject.

AUSTIN
Gender: Masculine
Usage: English
Pronounced: AWS-tin [key]
Medieval contracted form of AUGUSTINE (1). Modern use of the name is probably also partly inspired by the common surname Austin, which is of the same origin. This is also the name of a city in Texas.


Which in turn comes from:


AUGUSTUS
Gender: Masculine
Usage: Ancient Roman, Dutch
Pronounced: ə-GUS-təs (English) [key]
Means "great" or "venerable", derived from Latin augere "to increase". Augustus was the title given to Octavian, the first Roman emperor. He was the adopted son of Julius Caesar who rose to power through a combination of military skill and political prowess. This was also the name of three kings of Poland.
