I think everyone knows that Bliss means extreme, complete(highest) happiness.
Anna --Gracious; one who gives.
Emma -- an old German name meaning whole or universal. She is an honorable and tender person who appreciates the higher qualities of life.

Maybe Erdinc can clear that issue for you but I am going to comment on the meaning of his name anyway lol

"Er" means soldier.
"Dinc" means energetic and vigorous, robust and active.

so probably Erdinc means energetic/active soldier

Will I get erased for laughing at the question asked by SineNomine?


My name, Esther, the name of one of the jewish/hebrew books of bible, is not originally Hebrew. It comes from the Persian names 'ستاره setareh', which means 'a star'.

Some people seem to have linked it also to the verb 'str' wich means something like 'to hide/be sheltered' and then would mean 'sheltered' or 'i will be sheltered/hidden'.

I go for the first meaning, because it's more logic: Esther does look like the words for star like 'star', 'ster', 'estrella' etc.

With the persian origine I think I was meant to find my happiness more in the eastern direction
