"ᚃᚓᚅᚇᚑᚌᚅᚔ" meaning in All languages combined

See ᚃᚓᚅᚇᚑᚌᚅᚔ on Wiktionary

Proper name [Primitive Irish]

Forms: vendogni [romanization]
Etymology: From Proto-Celtic *windos (“white, fair”), perhaps compounded with a derivative of *genos (“birth”), thus meaning “fair born”. However, some scholars emend the word to ᚃᚓᚅᚇᚐᚌᚅᚔ (vendagni), indicating a formation with the extremely common and productive suffix -ᚐᚌᚅᚔ (-agni). The vocalism of the first syllable is unexplained, since both Proto-Celtic *windos and Old Irish finn unambiguously have i, not e. Yet there are many Primitive Irish names that begin with ᚃᚓᚅᚇ- (vend-) and none that begin with ᚃᚔᚅᚇ- (vind-). Etymology templates: {{der|pgl|cel-pro|*windos|t=white, fair}} Proto-Celtic *windos (“white, fair”), {{m-g|fair born}} “fair born”, {{af|pgl|-ᚐᚌᚅᚔ}} -ᚐᚌᚅᚔ (-agni), {{m+|cel-pro|*windos}} Proto-Celtic *windos, {{cog|sga|finn}} Old Irish finn
