Aoine

Meaning: Friday

Love Aoife? Maybe its popularity has got to you. Consider Aoine. This spunky name comes directly from aoine, the Irish word for "Friday". Aoine has only been used as a given name in Ireland in recent times, and rarely at that. Additionally, the word aoine comes from the Latin ieiunum which means "fast", because Fridays were originally days for fasting in Roman Catholicism. Aoine would be a great choice for a girl who was born on Friday.
