not necessarily derogatory, depends on the context. It is a shortcut for Christian as the cross represent Christ so the X represents the cross. Kinda like saying u r instead of you are.

In chinese can mean dwelling or speaking (something to do with religion), in Irish it means abyss. But the variation of that (Samira) in Arabic means entertaining. But seriously, why are you using a name if you don't know what it means.

Since 600 BC, Greeks used the name Persis for Persia / Iran. Persis was taken from Old Persian Pars or Parsa - the name of Cyrus's main clan that gave its name also to the region where the Persians lived (modern day province called Fars). Persian people likewise used the name of Younaan (instead of Hellas) for Greece. "Younan" in fact is taken from the name of Ionia, in the south-east of Greece.\n\nIn Latin, the name for the land was Persia. The name "Persia" until 1935 was the "official" name of Iran in the world, but Persian people inside their country since the Sassanian period have called it "Iran" meaning "the land of Aryans", the older version of which had been "Aryanam" as seen in ancient Iranian texts. They also used "Parsa" in the Achaemenids period.

♡"San" is added to the name the same way Mr. or Mrs. would be, a title. For Example, 'ludwigg san' (- or 'ludwigg kun'(*^o^*) ～kawaii!). It also shows respect. It's usually used with the family name, example Smith san, but can also be used with the first name, Cyn san. "Sama" is also used formally- Cyn sama. ～(Usually) For children, boys, "kun" is used, 'Tosh kun' (first name) or 'Mura kun' (last name). For girls, "chan" is used 'Mari chan' or 'Mura chan'. I live in Japan and I'm not a child, but people who are older than me call me "Cyn chan" all the time, my husband does as well. My family and relatives call my 'Cyn chan' or 'Cyn san' depending on their ages. I rarely hear anyone referred to by their first or last name only here in Japan～this is known as 'yobisute'. (Other than usually family members.  My hubby's younger sister calls him 'oniisan or oniichan' out of respect. He calls her by her name only because she's younger. She's younger than I am, but out of respect I still call her 'K san'. Mother and father are 'okasan and otousan'. This is our family, of course. Age is always respected in Japan.) There are many other titles in Japan as well, for professionals, teachers and so on....♡
