It has a lot of spellings because MEGAN can be pronounced /MEG in/, /MEE gin/ or /MAY gin/ and many of the spellings reflect that.

Oh yeah, I loved that song! I was a senior in high school lol (I'm old)

Aed (modern Aodh) was the name of a god, meaning "fire"- modern surnames McHugh, McCoy, etc. are derived from this, and the first name Aidan is a diminutive of Aed. Midir probably is borrowed from another language, but it isn't known in any other form.

hahah their names are a weird mixture of Old Irish versions and modern spellings: Aengas is Óengus in Old Irish, Brigit is Bríd, Bodb Derg isn't really a name, it probably means "red crow", Cermait is legit,-- the surname Carmody comes from this (modern spelling is Cearmaid).

The cats are Chicken and Leroy, the fish are Euphemia and Edith, and the turtle is Stellan (Stella until we discovered he was a boy)

Yes, I have 2 cats, 2 goldfish, a turtle, and 5 roommates!

being used as a short form of Jessica, a name coined by Shakespeare for his play the Merchant of Venice. He probably based it on the obscure biblical Hebrew name Yiska, translated Iscah & sometimes Jesca in English. It started being given to girls in the 1800s and gained popularity in the 1960s.

Jessie was used as a dim of Jean/Janet in Scotland. It comes from Seasag or Seasaidh, which were dims of Seonaid, the Gaelic feminine form of John. #Jessica didn't become widely used until the 20th century. It was originally coined by Shakespeare for his play #themerchantofvenice. #babynames
