in reply to a message by Adelon

Are you male or female? Have you asked your parents where they found the name and why they gave it to you?

When i first saw the name "adelon", the name sounded familiar to me.
There is a tv-movie with the german title "Das Geheimnis der Lady Adelon", in english "The Inheritance".It is based om a novel written by Louisa May Alcott.
"Adelon" is the surname of the heroine.

Adelon (f)

Adelon is a nickname of Adèle, made with the addition of the diminutive suffix -on, as in Marie>Marion, Madeleine>Madelon, etc.

I think it means "secret" or "nothing visible" -- from the Greek.
