Blogathon 2003 - A Conversation with Ronin

Ronin: so what name(s) do you want me to translate?

Ronin: Aine?

Ronin: I mean

Ronin: damnit, I’m already not making sense. Any names in addition to Aine

Aine: �ine… (pronounced AHN-ya) and I’ll even help you out by telling you it means “the bright one” or “of the sun”

Ronin: lol

Aine: and since she’s not here, do Morgaine’s name too

Aine: lol

Ronin: I was coming up with the meaning of “Fire of Joy” for Irish and for Celtic “Ardent” so glad you passed on your meanings

Aine: �ine was the goddess of love and fertility

Ronin: Aine = ZEdalOrO - Zee-dah-Lohr-oh

Ronin: Genitive of Membership, meaning she is part of the sun

* Aine grins

Aine: from A to Z… lol

Ronin:

Ronin: do you know what Morgaine means?

Ronin: I know it is from Arthur legends

Aine: not only Arthurian legend, but from Celtic deities as well

Aine: Morgaine = the Morrigan, goddess of battle

Ronin: ah

Aine: most of the Celtic goddesses can transmute their physical form into animal form, as well… for both names, that form can take either that of a raven or of a horse

Aine: I’ve even read some source material which states that it is believed that Morrigan and �ine were sisters

Ronin: lol

Aine: yeah, amusing, eh?

Ronin: indeed

[pause]

Ronin: ZEdalOrO and PalIbAna (Pal-eye-bane-ah)
