meaning for Veda besides the Sanskrit?
My great grandmother's name was Veda (pronounced VAY-duh) which I think is a lovely name. All the information I've been able to find on it gives the Sanskrit meaning of "knowledge". This is almost definitely not what was going on with my great grandmother, as she was a white, Christian woman who lived in the South.
I was hoping someone would have some idea as to what the origins of this name might be within that context.
Thanks.
