james = "the supplanter" according to a baby name book, but maybe that is just a modern-day description of James, the apostle (from the Bible).

hinnant = thatcher (as in thatched roof), probably a belgium name (lots of "hinants" round charleroi), but that meaning could be suspect, too, i've only seen it once.

i remember googling for Egyptian/Arabic namelists when my friend's kid was born ...
