What does the name Aine mean?
The meaning and origin of Aine
French
noun
//ɛn//

groin

Etymology: Inherited from Vulgar Latin *inguinem, a masculine form of the Classical Latin neuter noun inguen.

Finnish
noun
//ˈɑi̯neˣ//

matter, material, substance; subject, discipline (particular area of study, especially one taught in a school)

Etymology: From *aineh, related to Karelian aineh and Estonian aine (loan from Finnish), probably borrowed from Proto-Norse [Term?], from Proto-Germanic *afniz (compare Swedish ämne (“matter, subject”)). The correspondence of Germanic *f with Finnish i may seem exceptional, but has a parallel in eine. The sense "essay" was coined by Finnish folklorist and linguist Daniel Europaeus in 1853 (as ainekirjoitus).
