Mine Simply means "brandy" from the English word for the alcoholic drink. It is ultimately from Dutch brandewijn "distilled wine". Nice huh?

If your novel is set in the real world, you can just decide what language you want the name to be in, then find out the word for "slave" in that language. If it's set in a world you created, you can make up any name you want, and have it mean "slave" in a made-up language. Don't know if this helps, but "carl" is an old (IIRC Germanic?) word for manservant...the names Charles, Carlo, Carlos, etc., as well as the feminine versions (Charlotte, Caroline, Carlotta, etc.) all derive from it. I find it very interesting that a name like Charles that has belonged to so many European kings comes from a word meaning servant!

He is also known as Santa Claus (from Dutch Sinterklaas), the bringer of Christmas presents. He is the patron saint of children, sailors and merchants, and Greece and Russia. Nicholas was also the name of two czars of Russia and five popes.
