Re: Jhosravinegad, Jukneviviene, & Jufufcehajic...What are the origins & meanings of these names ?
No real clue ...but that's never stopped me from trying ...

Jhosravinegad ...maybe a Joseph or Joshua ...from a wineland ... maybe -gad comes from gard ...

Jukneviviene ...there's an Estonian first name Juku which is a form of Richard ...viviene ...looks possibly like a combo of 'vita' - life and viene - maybe venir - to come ...

Jufufcehajic ...certainly Slavic with that ending ...which I believe denotes a diminutive? (Can anyone confirm?) Maybe a form of Geoffrey ...or maybe the Hebrew name Jedidah ...'friend of God' ...

Just a shot in the dark ...
