message: Whenever I type in a first name, I get a list of people with that name. This seems to be the only name I can find that doesn't do that. It needs to be fixed.  ---SilentRAGE! 02:00, 6 August 2006 (UTC)

message: I am coping this form what i just put in the Ciaran article : http://www.ireland-information.com/heraldichall/irishboysnames.htm i quote 'The name Ciara is generally ancient Celtic. It is taken from the old Gaelic word "kir", meaning black (as in the night). The male version of Ciara is Ciaran, which is the early form of Kevin'Blacksmith2 07:22, 8 June 2007 (UTC)

message: The author is incorrect in the meaning of "Kevin" as the "Roman God to War".  The Roman war god was Mars and has nothing to do with this name.  And his noted citation source gives a definition of "Handsome, Beloved".  St. Kevin article sites the names original gaelic meaning is "fair begotten". 74.14.238.25 20:33, 18 June 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Kevina

message: Just thought it was a little strange how this article says "Its female version is Kevina (pronounced kev-EE-nə)." but then goes on to say, one paragraph later "There is no specific female variation of the name, though the Irish name Caoimhín  has a girls counterpart Caoimhe". 76.178.153.225 (talk) 20:55, 7 May 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Fair point. The source given doesn’t mention the name "Kevina" at all, so I’ve removed it. And the female version of Caoimhín  is Caoimhe; the anglicised form of that is Keavy, or Keeva. Swanny18 (talk) 20:12, 18 July 2010 (UTC)

message: Maybe we should add a few sentences about how Kevin isn't a particularly well-regarded name outside the Anglophone community, with notable examples being France and German-speaking areas. The German Wikipedia has an entire article titled "Kevinismus" which deals about how people with that particular name (among others) are generally seen as lower-class, of aberrant behaviour and possessing lots of other negative traits, often subconsciously - which leads to grave side effects such as teachers giving kids with that particular name worse marks, even if they don't actually mean to. A similar phenomenon is seen in France, as this BBC article highlights. --195.71.21.217 (talk) 10:33, 19 March 2017 (UTC)
