Oceanic: Lewis is a variation of Louis, old German for "reknown warrior". I thought your screenname would have something to do with all those South Pacific islands.

Perhaps Old Navy of Numenor-Marcus.

(Sorry, Enca, I couldn't resist.)

My name is originally from one of these name generators but somehow I liked it and it really matches with me....
Dûrfuiniel means Daughter of dark night and I think it matches twice 'cause on one hand it's elvish (sindarin) and on the other hand it means daughter of dark night and I love the night and those fantasy night creatures as vampires etc...
