Regular Member MaudlinBlithe Posted July 16, 2005 Regular Member Share Posted July 16, 2005 OMG I LOVE NAMES FROM OTHER CULTURES! YAY!!! Where did you find those? are there any more from the webpage where you found them? Eureka! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest yabbie Posted July 17, 2005 Share Posted July 17, 2005 There are thousands of Thai names... and really interesting ways of naming children. It's fascinating. I left out the really normal ones like Tran etc, and went for romantic sounding names. Just run "Thai names" thru go0gle and you'll get tonnes... and half of them will be in English instead of script. Post some new ones here if you find them.

Guest yabbie Posted August 3, 2005 Share Posted August 3, 2005 Someone was asking about names in another thread... and then I found this great explanation of how Thai people make up names... thought someone would be interested: Making up your own Thai names I have Chailai (pretty) and Kulap (rose - don't tell Kulap I gave him a girl's name! It's his fault for being rose coloured!). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member froggydella Posted August 3, 2005 Regular Member Share Posted August 3, 2005 I just read through the names and Tran is a Vietamise name, my sons father is Vietamiese and that is his last name... I like the list though, nice to see what each name means. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest yabbie Posted August 3, 2005 Share Posted August 3, 2005 Yes from the Tran dynasty... very popular. I wonder if the name Tran hasn't spread to Cambodia, Thailand and Laos too... there sure are a lot of Trans about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member Anic Posted August 6, 2005 Regular Member Share Posted August 6, 2005 Hey, yabbie.... thanks for posting some of those names. After I read them, I searched for more Thai names. Then, a day or two later I got two new Bettas! I named them Niram and Kasem! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest yabbie Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 Okay, joining Kulap, Chailai and the banger sisters (they don't get their own names because they're too crazy)... I have chosen the names... Ratana, Suchin, Sunee, Mongkut and Pakpao. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest yabbie Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 Good name, huh? Nice and strong, polynesian sounding. She's a strong looking girl. I love it because it uses common syllables of that south pacific where I grew up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member balashark Posted September 18, 2005 Regular Member Share Posted September 18, 2005 finally found one. an english-thai dictionay can be found at http://www.thai-language.com/dict/ it even has a thing where you can hear the words pronounced (so you know what your new betta's name sounds like as well). now you can name your betta what ever you want and still give it a thai twist. jen chose bplianroh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
