I was wondering where some of the names in eberron come from. For instance: Dura ( a section of sharn), means hard in latin. Anybody know any onther name origins?

While I'm not Mr. Baker, I think that it is just coincidence if any names in the campaign setting have trace-able real-world roots.

Also the well known Aurum that mean Gold in Latin... There are many other examples but I can't remember them and no I don't think it's a coincidence....
