This isn’t a “New Zealand” name. It’s a spelling variation of the Irish name Madden which means “little dog”.

Kinvara is an Irish place name derived from Cinn Mhara, the Irish Gaelic for “head of the sea”. A notable bearer is the writer Kinvara Balfour, born 1975. I had to suggest this name be added to the database after @namelover55 brought it up. Thanks, Emily, for making me aware of this name!

During the Olympics when I made a series of CAFs, I found quite a number of names not linked to the database. I’ve tried to do some research and found some with meanings, but for the ones I haven’t I’ve put the nationality of the Olympian. Apologies if any of these have been added since then.

Starting with some of the girls:

Madalina (Romanian form of [name_f]Magdalene[/name_f], meaning high tower. Also can be spelled as Mădălina)

McKenna (the [name_f]Mckenna[/name_f] spelling is listed in the database, is it possible to add McKenna spelling – Irish, son of the handsome one for both variations)

Elsabeth (means God is my oath, alternate form of [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] (hebrew))

[name_f]Sunisa[/name_f] (can’t find anything on origin, but the Olympian was [name_f]Sunisa[/name_f] [name_u]Lee[/name_u], who is Hmong American)

Maellyse (variant of [name_f]Maelys[/name_f] (?), Olympian was Maellyse Brassart of Belgium)

Anastasiia (Russian variant of Anastasia?)

Viktoriia (Russian variant of Viktoria/Victoria)

Urara (Japanese name meaning serene, beautiful)

Mykayla (spelling variation of Michaela/Mikayla etc.)

Shallon (can’t find origin, Olympian was Shallon [name_m]Olsen[/name_m] of Canada)

The McKenna spelling is the one used within the entry itself. I’m not sure exactly what is up with that.

As far as I’m aware, we can’t add names with capital letters in the middle due to the way names are entered.

Thanks for the clarification, I thought that might have been the case.
