What's in a name?

So, I've been getting some hassling (more like inquiries) into what the name "Lark" or "Larker" really means. Well, a lark is a bird, a very special bird. It was first associated with wheat plants and thus, became associated to Jesus Christ who is the Bread of Life. This relation is further strengthened as the lark removes beetles, locust eggs, and caterpillars (which were symbolic of Satan) from wheat fields. It is also considered a link between heaven and Earth, as Christ is, symbolizing the marriage of heaven and earth. Therefore, one can conclude that the lark is representative of Jesus - and as a result association, Peace, but more importantly, Love. Again, the mentioned note of marriage lends itself to the overall theme of Christ and His love, as a husband and wife should love one another (especially the husband) as Christ loves the church. There's "Lark" for you.
Now as for "Larker", one might conclude that it is simply a natural progression or evolution of "Lark". Technically, that's a sound conclusion, though I'll let you figure out any other possible meanings on your own. It's not that complicated. Really quite simple, as these things should be.

And Adwin, be quiet.

EDIT: Seplling error rectified.
