Wrong! Ciarán is an Irish name meaning 'Little Dark One.' Originally a nickname for a dark-haired person. As a saint's name (Saint Ciaran of Clonmacnoise (Kieran the Younger) 516-549), it was too holy for everyday use, so was replaced with names like 'Gilla Ciaran' or 'Mael Ciaran' meaning 'Devoted to St. Ciaran' and 'Servant of St. Ciaran.'Ciarang said:Thanks :3The infamous SCAMola said:Ciaran? That's an unsual name.
Its the old celtic way of spelling kieran
This, except:Random argument man said:Random- Because it's really a random thing

Man- That thing between m....... In short: I'm a man.

And now you know.
OT: My nickname is Nerdfury. I am named so as I am a nerd, and I am often furious.
I've heard both, in the novel it was translated as freedom, I've been told by greek people it's free and the internet tells me both translations are correct... so your guess is as good as mine really.The infamous SCAMola said:Isn't it freedom "Eleutheria"? I studied Ancient Greek, but my memory is a bit hazy.Eleuthera said:It's greek for "Free" or "Freedom" and stolen from this [http://home.stevenpressfield.com/books/last_amazons.asp] novel.

Bullshitting - Present participle of bullshit: False or exaggerated statements made to impress the listener rather than deceive / A card game in which the object is to bluff about cards laid down and to determine when one's opponents are bluffing / An object of frustration and/or disgust, often caused by a perceived deception.
Quite straightforward, really. No mystery there.
