Is there anything else it means?

Is there any other meanings to these names?
You've pretty much got it!





Kevin comes from the old Irish name Coemgen -- coem means "kind, gentle, or handsome" and gein means "at birth." So in addition to meaning "handsome at birth," the name could also mean "kind and gentle at birth."





Nicholas means "victory of the people," just like you said.





Of course, names also have meaning in their historical and cultural context, so you may want to look up some famous Kevin's and Nicholas's to see what "meaning" their lives may have added to the names. (The name Nicholas was borne by a saint, five popes, and two Russian czars.)





I like the fact that you are using meaning to help you decide between your last two picks. That's a great idea when both names seem equally good to you; it often helps tip the scale a bit in one direction or the other. Good luck! I know this is a tough decision.
Reply:Nicholas: victory of the people


Kevin: handsome, beautiful





Yeah, so the meanings I found were basically the same as you came up with.
Reply:No, sorry.





It's like a chair mean it's a chair and a hairbush means it's a hairbrush. That's what that word means. If you're looking for a different meaning try a different word or name.
