ArchivesEdana
Recently, I came across the name Edana on this site. The origin provided is "History (Ecclesiastical)," which basically means it's the Latinized version of Étaín.
Étaín is pronounced EH-teen, and the Anglicized form is Aideen (emphasis again on the first syllable). But given that Edana is Latinized... is it EH-da-nə, or eh-DAN-ə?

I knew a girl from Ireland named Etain and it was pronounced eh-TANE, last part rhymed with Charmaine. As for Edana, I think either pronunciation is correct. I would be more inclined to say eh-DAH-nah
