Chalun - m (Nivkh) fog

From Nivkh ch'alu, "fog".

Usually given to a boy born on a foggy day.

Nivkh is an endangered language that I'm having trouble finding resources for. If anyone knows the pronunciation or Cyrillic spelling for this let me know!

Mokphai ໝອກໄພ - m/f (Lao) fog forest, mist ripple, haze whisper

From Lao:

Mok ໝອກ mɔ̏ːk - "fog, foggy, mist, haze, dew, frost, navy blue"

Phai ໄພ pʰáy - "forest, jungle, ripple, whisper, copper coin, thatch, to weave thatch, danger, disaster, threat, menace, calamity, misfortune, trouble"

IPA: mɔ̏ːkpʰáy

I did a little more research into the elements on sealang and found out the element phai has so many more meanings than I thought! So this name could mean many different things. Most interesting to me is the implication of danger.

All together, this name paints an interesting picture.
