ArchivesRe: do you know the meaning of the names...
in reply to a message by Lorelei
Hi Lorelei,
Correy can have many meanings because it's a short form / pet form for any name beginning with Cor-/Kor- like Kora, Cornelia, Corinna, Corintha, Corona, Kordelia, Corliss etc.
In a name book I found the original name Rebekka for Ree, but I'd guess that Ree can be a short form for every name beginning with Ree-/Ri-. Rie could either be a spelling variation of Ree or I found two different Japanese meanings. I don't speak Japanese, so I don't know which one (if any) is more reliable:
1) village + picture
2) given + reason or ground
For Enna I found theses meanings:
1) Frisian pet form for Egina (short form for Old German names beginning with Egin- "fright" or Ekke- "sword")
2) Celtic spelling variation of Enda which means "bird" (???)
Regards, Satu
