ArchivesRe: The female name Minea
in reply to a message by Satu
Thank you, interesting that the name Minea is now discussed on Swedish name sites. I never heard of the name before, except in Waltari's novel.
Though I doubt that Waltari got the name from Frisian, I think he thought of Minoan culture. The Minea in the book was from Crete.

I learned my lesson well.

So you got to please yourself."
