Re: Anyone know what Ayrton means?
in reply to a message by Vic
Unfortunately my search for the etymology of the late great Ayrton Senna yielded ziltch.
All I can say (as a consolation prize) is that:
1) Senna is probably related to the senna pod with its well-known laxative qualities.
2) The name Ayrton is featured in scores of K-9name sites including, inter alia:
siriusdog.com, vvmall.com/goodshepherd/dog_names.htm and www.dogomania.com.
Again no etymology (or entomology) is provided.
