#Ennio (e.g. #EnnioMorricone) - "the Meaning of that Name" reminds me Why 'Professors' (okay, 'Teachers') Demand "Citations" on Reports @OurBabyNamer @onomast

'That name' (below-hyperlinked to a brief post about an epic composer by that name) is built on an even-deeper source ... something crucial that firms the foundation upon which our lexicon stands ...
The name “Ennio” is built on ancient words that mean " |Favored by G-d" ... or is it?

BehindTheName is my usual source for name-origins, but they didn't have 'that meaning' (although they did mention the same namesake-name -- #Ennius, last-name of a Roman poet) ... that's like a "source-citation" (you know, like at the bottom of most Wikipedia-pages---the names of books-etc. where they got their information, sometimes 'links to the webpages where they got their information' (which is what many of my hyperlinks are, if they're not leading to my other posts).

But OurBabyNames--tho they claim 'too many sources to cite them all' (or something), and give a lot more information than just 'the names' meanings'--don't cite the source or (the way Etymonline does with the words it finds in the history of the words it lists) -the root-words that make up the meaning.

I appreciate your comment, and I'll probably approve it & publish it soon (give me about a week before you try to post it again when it doesn't publish immediately ... thanks)
