Latin:

Alexis derives from "Alexander" which means "Defender." The closest name I could find in Latin is "Alcander" which means "Strong."

Amanda is already Latin for "Beloved."

Addison derives from "Adam's Son." The closest I could find in Latin was "Adamus."

Egyptian:

These are the closest equivalents I could find:

Bomani = Warrior
Merit = Beloved

I don't think there would be an equivalent to Adam, since that he is not in their mythology...?? If you can stretch meanings a bit, then Okpara = Firstborn
