526.0. "Aydine Fiona" by KERBER::SUTHERLAND (But kata is very important..) Mon May 07 1990 15:40

  Can anyone help me with the name I chose for my daughter.  
  
  Aydine is either Irish or Jewish, I got it from an Irish friend who have a
  daughter called Aedine ne.  I didn't want to use Irish spelling because 
  we are not an Irish family.  In Jewish I believe it means voluptuous.
  
  Fiona is a scottish name (possibly also Irish).

I am Scottish by the way, my wife is English.

    I've heard both names, and I think they're beautiful.  Fiona is one of
    my FAVORITE names.  (I'll name my first daughter that!)  Yes, I believe
    it IS Scottish, although it's also very popular in other parts of Great
    Britain.  Does anyone know what it means????  Aydine is really pretty
    too.

    Yes I am rather fond of the name we chose for our little girl.  Also it 
    doesn't offend any of our families as no-one in the immediate family groups
    have those names.

    Don't know what Fiona means.  However my wife Kathy has 2 very good 
    friends called Fiona.  She invited them for dinner last week, so not only
    was I surrounded by 4 beautiful girls (and they are all that) but 3 of
    them were Fionas.

    Where did you hear the name Aydine before?  My one is only the second one I
    know of.

526.3Only replying to my own reply..PLAYER::SUTHERLANDso don't let go..Tue Jun 19 1990 13:1313
    D*mn, d*mn, d*mn.  I should have thought about it.  

    We are living in Holland, so the Dutch tend to pronounce Aydine as
    Aidine.  Comes out sounding like Iodine.  I keep having to correct 
    people.

    My wifes name is Kathy, the Dutch pronounce that Katty and as for
    mine...  Anyone know about the Dutch hard G?
