About the name Kay, PhirePhreak asketh:
"Kay --> simply the short form of any name beginning with the letter K, so what's her full name? "
Her full name is Eleanor Kay. She is from the tribe of Husker, which dwells in the frozen land of Nebraska.

[Kezil]

In order to assist PhirePhreak in his search to translate all the AO member's names, I have decided that in reciprocation for going through the torture of finding all the names I give him, I will find the etymologies of all possible names currently posted and not translated that I can.

So begins the list:

Stefanie:
"crowned"

Batiah:
possibly from
Hebrew Bithiah "daughter of Yahweh"
or
Bhatia (can't find meaning)

Lanny:
from Roland, "From the land of fame"

Scott:
Like PhirePhreak said, no truly accurate translating etymology
something related to the culture or "foreign" might work.

Bar: "son of"
Elihu: "God is Jehovah"
maybe "the son of God is Jehovah"

4. cast a spell over someone or something; put a hex on someone or something

Brouwer:
keep getting refs to some guy named Brouwer, nothing relevant, might as well go with what you gave:

Brouwer, in english Brewer or (as my dad thinks) Brouwer could well have originated from Breewer as in making wooden boats water tight

3. The best or most skilled members of a group: the football team's elite.
