Re: Neda
The list of Persian names by Maryam Kutchemeshgi (at my knowledge, it is reliable) gives the meaning of "voice, call" and one online Persian dictionary (http://www.farsidic.com/) gives the meaning "proclamation, voice" for the word neda, which matches. The meaning "divine calling" seems one of those embellished meanings.
