Talk:Aodh (given name)

Suggestions

Some suggestions I've material but no time for now:

• Aed be amalgamated with Aodh

• More cognomens and variant spellings be listed and cross-ref'd

• More detail on Indo European root (aidho, aidhis) and cognates

• Gather name lists together in one place

• Make distinction between mythology - 'gods' - and fact

• IPA characters and pronunciation

Cool, I'm interested to see how this article evolves. I just fiddled a bit and have given everything a source, but it seems you've got some better ones.--Brianann MacAmhlaidh (talk) 10:54, 28 January 2011 (UTC)

I think the main article for the pet forms could probably go over at Aidan, or somewhere, or do you think it's better to cover all the Gaelic names here? Maybe that would be better. There are so many forms of these names, it's confusing. I've redirected Aodh here.--Brianann MacAmhlaidh (talk) 11:14, 28 January 2011 (UTC)

Great. Maybe Aodh is the best place for everything; it's the modern root. I'm going to try redirecting (but still a novice, so bear with me)Concord113 (talk) 16:07, 28 January 2011 (UTC) Later - didn't work; I'll leave it for the time being and add material to Áed.

Whoops. "Cut and paste" moves are frowned upon because they mess up the contributions in the article's history, but we can ask an admin to move it @ Wikipedia:Requested moves. I'll do that now. We can keep working on this page for now and eventually an admin will move the title to "Aodh (given name)". I think a good source for the article would be Irish names by Ó Corráin and Maguire, but I haven't had any luck tracking down a copy.--Brianann MacAmhlaidh (talk) 04:53, 29 January 2011 (UTC)

Great. I'll add to Aed as I get a chance and it will be moved in due course. Concord113 (talk) 02:27, 31 January 2011 (UTC)
