[edit] Jarrod

Not sure if meanings of names are sufficiently encyclopedic. Expand or delete. Pilatus 20:33, 27 October 2005 (UTC)

• Weak Delete - adding the etymology of surnames to the various lists of Smiths, Joneses etc. has some merit, but are there any notable Jarrods? Or related names, as these etymologies tend to have multiple variations? - Just zis Guy, you know? 20:39, 27 October 2005 (UTC)
• Etymologies of words, names or otherwise, are what one finds in a dictionary. Wikipedia is an encyclopaedia not a dictionary. See Wikipedia:Deletion policy/names and surnames. The given names and surnames appendices at Wiktionary are where this and articles like it belong. Delete. Uncle G 07:36, 28 October 2005 (UTC)
• Keep given names are inherently notable, being shared by thousands of people.  Grue  13:58, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
