Viana and Eldridge?
These were the names of my now deceased grandparents, Behind The Name has no records of these names. I am especially perplexed by Viana.
Does anyone know anything about these names?They were both children of immigrants who were born in Montana, Viana was from a Finnish/Swedish family, while Eldridge was from a Czech family.Any information would be much appreciated!

VIANASeibicke (Historisches Deutsches Vornamenbuch) lists VIANNA as a short form av VIVIANA. So I guess, VIANA could be the same.
