What is the reason for this? Why westoid names sound so lame?

Reekoids are westoids too

Nothing wrong with those names. Anything can sound "lame" if you turn it into a cute nickname.

>What is the reason for this?
i don't know, you tell me the reason you're straying from your brown containment site

I think it has to do with the fact that modern western names tend to be foreign in origin or extremely slurred and corrupted, so they have no meaning at all to people without looking it up. Ancient names tended to just be regular phrases within the person's language
>>
>>17427352
Greek is a poor example.
Average greek is named something like Dimitry Fagapopadopolous.
Ugly slavic fag names that have nothing on names like Kleon, Pericles, Demosthenes, Lysander, etc.
>>
>>17427567
Dimitris is Greek retard, Slavs stereotypically have Greek names not vice versa.

Shows you the failure and ineptitude of the grekoid nation such that their names are associated with Slavs and not them. Their Tstmakiopolous surnames are still goofy as fuck.

Slavic form of the Greek name Demetrius, meaning 'devoted to Demeter' (Greek goddess of agriculture), and passed on through St Demetrius of Thessaloniki, a military saint venerated in all churches.

>Nikolai

Robert is an old German name that means “bright fame.” It's taken from the old German name Hrodebert. The name is made up of two elements: hrod which means "fame" and beraht which means "bright." The name was introduced to the people of England by the Normans in the Middle Ages.

Kevin is a boy's name of Irish descent. The name derives from the Irish name Caoimhín, which originates from the elements coém and gein, meaning “handsome” or "beloved" and “birth,” respectively.

Shame these names got watered down so much the majority has no idea what they mean.

Meanwhile the average Greek speaker has at least an idea of what most Greek names mean.

And Mohammed name means praise worthy and his full name is "praise worthy worshipper of Allah the seeker" (the name of his father and grandpa) and his ancestor name or clan is hashem meaning the crusher of evil etc.

If I had to pick one 'foreign' name however that could potentially triumph these, it would be Maximillian. That name for same reason radiates power and authority. I like the sound to it. Sounds like a born-to-be emperor.

The West and especially Anglo-Saxon countries are fundamentally mongrelized in this respect; our tongues oversimple and "dead" in a way.

>>17427352
To be fair, 3 of those are nicknames. Not actual names.

Those are short forms of longer names that have just as much meaning:
>The name Robert is an ancient Germanic given name, from Proto-Germanic *Hrōþi- "fame" and *berhta- "bright" (Hrōþiberhtaz).[1] Compare Old Dutch Robrecht and Old High German Hrodebert (a compound of Hruod (Old Norse: Hróðr) "fame, glory, honour, praise, renown, godlike" and berht "bright, light, shining").
>Kevin (/ˈkɛvJn/) is the anglicized form of the Irish masculine given name Caoimhín (Irish pronunciation: [ˈkiːvʲiːnʲ]; Middle Irish: Caoimhghín [ˈkəiṽʲʝiːnʲ]; Old Irish: Cóemgein [ˈkoiṽʲɣʲinʲ]; Latinized as Coemgenus). It is composed of caomh "dear; noble";[1] Old Irish cóem and -gin ("birth"; Old Irish gein).[2]
>Laurent is a French masculine given name of Latin origin. It is used in France, Canada, and other French-speaking countries. The name was derived from the Roman surname Laurentius, which meant "from Laurentum". It can also be derived from the Old Greek word Lavrenti, meaning "the bright one, shining one".
Theo, Leo, Alex, and Pany don’t sound as fancy in their short forms either.
