    Is there such a dictionary?

    I am trying to come up with a name for the kitten I rescued but I want something unique and one with a meaninful meaning behind it.

    I was thinking something along the lines of a word in a different language, one that means something similar to thirve, or rescued, or strong, etc.....

    I am getting so sick of searching the name sites, going into each language then scrolling through the meanings.

    You would think there would be a dictionary site where you can type in the word & the same word from many different languages would come up. (yes I'm asking for a lot here) lol

    There's the thread. Nothings for certain yet, I need to look in a mirror first & see if I really do have "sucker" written in big, bold, bright colors across my forehead. Thats why there isn't a new thread....... yet.

    This is my favorite name site, but no names are coming to me & I'm too lazy to really look at the moment.

    Thanks everyone for all the wonderful suggestions! With all of our hard work combined we came up with a name for the cutie, and a name that needed no research. lol
    Since day one I was calling the kitten George & Frank (and a million and 3 other names). My friend who will be taking the kitten IF I decide not to keep it also likes the name George, so that is his name, George. LOL He really does like the name though.

    Kay, I love the name Mosi, I'll have to keep that in mind for the next rescue/foster.
