Re: Adalie??
Well yes, as both Adelaide and Adelheid are derived from Adelheidis, Adalie would also be related to Adelaide but Adelaide is not used in Germany. So if Adalie really is a German name, it would have to be derived from Adelheid. If you like you can check out the family tree of Adelaide here: http://www.behindthename.com/php/tree.php?name=adelaideAgain IF Adalie is German, I doubt it to be derived from either a place name or a genus of ladybugs because this is not a tradition in Germany and is against current naming laws.
