Re: Cases of convergent name evolution
My nickname, Nino, is another one. It's a masculine diminutive (sometimes used as a given name) in the West, and in Georgian it's a feminine given name, both with different etymologies. I feel like you see it more with shorter names. Long names generally don't exist in more than one unrelated culture.
