Somewhere near 300-400 are still 'alive' if you call them.

One more thing: The 1000 languages I am talking about, are the languages which are found till yet. There are more than 1000, sometimes even a group of villages make a different language of their own.
Really?
That's truly amazing!

Yeah, that's what makes every state, city and village different from each other. :D

Take me as an example, as I don't know even a single word of the South Indian languages. I have been to different cities, and found different type of languages there.

Out of 29 states in India, I know the language of only 2-3 states. ???

Wow after all these amazing stories and clever people creating their names, mine is simply the name my grandmother called me when I was a little girl (many many years ago!) I am actually Christine, but only my mother calls me that to most people I'm Chris. I couldn't use that on other forums so chrissie I am and lower case 'cos I was too lazy to press shift! ::)

Christine is a nice name. It somehow sounds very gentle to me. Haha, there is a car named after you, did you know that? ;) And a lot of movies are based on that car, in the thriller section.

Mine came from a story I'm writing.

I think mine came from:
A body of water. (I like swimming, so... yeah. That's the origin of the water bit.)
Waterbody didn't sound right.
So then there was Lakebody, and Riverbody, and finally, Seabody!

My current avatar is of my Second Gen. Dynasty sim, Sound Marsden (Yessir, there's a tribute to the Mans right there), and he is carrying his daughter, June Marsden. I'm proud of Sound, as he completed his LTW and SuperMax skill and... well... most of the requirements not long into his YA stage. Oh, and his father struck the same pose with him about 10 feet away from where Sound is standing now.

Is it also a tribute to Pam? ;)

Now that you mention it...it does seem a bit obvious, doesn't it? :D

I think mine is pretty obvious, from the greatest comic book ever!

For a long time I was just using the first three letters of my first name Law. But over time that became to short (or someone else had it). So I added my favorite color in front.

To start with mine: Leto came from the book Dune. I know there is also a Jared Leto (who is named after me :P) and a female Leto person in the Greek mythologie, but originally Leto came from Dune. 85 is the year I was born. 1985, for in case someone wanted to know that more precise.
Whenever I see your username, I can't help but think of Dune, every single time.  I really like Dune, though, so... ;D

My username isn't very creative.  It comes from my middle name Lynn.  I usually use Lynaeve but wanted something different and came up with Lynley. I think I unintentionally stole it from the British series Inspector Lynley, though.  I didn't realize it until I saw my parents watching it and had a Duh! moment.  Either way, I liked it and added 1248 when registering on Sims3.com because Lynley was taken.

Actually, at first, no.
It was pure coincedence. I guess like Carl, and Kattiq's Radcliff's.
Marsden came from a bottle of wine I saw around. Soon after, I realised that... Henry Marsden... Pam Marsden... So I scrapped Gen 8's original name (Hachi or Huit, those mean Eight in Japanese and French respectively) and decided, my eigth immortal will be called Pam Marsden.
So, soon enough, yes.

I wonder what traits you will give her. Good, friendly, Good Sence of Humor, Genius and Atractive? Or wait, atractive isn't really a trait.
Hmmm, re-creating historical figures is difficult sometimes...
