None of your business.
I am NOT a Conservative because I see them as Christian supremacist, homophobic, and pawns of corporations.
I am NOT a Liberal because I see them as a bunch of idealists with little understanding of how the world really works.
I am NOT a Libertarian because I see them as pawns of corporations and I believe in a medium sized government.
I am NOT a Moderate because I am not in the center on every issue since I hold right wing views on some issues and left wing views on others.

Well... Erm... Ravine is correct, Corey comes from the gaelic words for a ravine or deep hallow (coisrig in Scottish Gaelic) but there isn't a difference between Gaelic and Irish/Scottish, though there is a difference between Irish and Scottish Gaelic

Try the Urban Dictionary. :p It'll probably have a definition that suits you.

Don't know who the hell wrote mine (I swear it wasn't me), but it's accurate enough.

Yet human intelligence has another force, too: the sense of urgency that gives human smarts their drive. Perhaps our intelligence is not just ended by our mortality; to a great degree, it is our mortality.

Jackson. It means "son of Jack". I know, it's shocking.
When identifying as female though (damn my genderfluidity), I use Katherine. I use Sera for androgynous, third gender, and pangender expressions.
