Feridun Zaimoglu
Freydun (; from the Avestan ''Θraētaona''), is an Iranian masculine given name. Common variations include the names Freidun, Feridun, Faridun, Faredoon, Fereydoon, Ferydoon, Faridoon, Ferydoun, Fereydoun and Fereydun. Etymology All of the forms of the name shown above derive, by regular sound laws, from Proto-Iranian ''Thraetaona'' (Θraētaona) and Proto-Indo-Iranian ''Traitaunas''. Traitaunas is a derivative (with augmentative suffix -una/-auna) of ''Tritas'', the name of a deity or hero reflected in the Vedic '' Trita'' and the Avestan ''Thrita'' (Θrita). Both names are identical to the adjective meaning "the third", a term used of a minor deity associated with two other deities to form a triad. In the Indian Vedas, Trita is associated with gods of thunder and wind. Trita is also called ''Aptya'' (Āptya), a name that is probably cognate with '' Athwiya'' (Āθβiya), the name of father of Thraetaona in the Avestā. Traitaunas may therefore be interpreted as "the great s ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
