TM Nam 3964

Marion (f.)

Stable URI (with TM Nam ID): www.trismegistos.org/name/3964 Copy URI to clipboard

Standard variants

Greek: Μαριον

Latin: Marion

Gender: Female

Linguistic origins: Semitic: Aramaic

Bibliography: Cf. S. Honigman, ZPE 146 (2004), p. 291

Notes: S. Honigman (personal communication): 'Marion cannot be an original Aramaic female name, because ‘mar’ is masculine. The feminine form would require a ‘t’ (see ‘Martha’). In my article for Naming in Egypt I treat Marion as a Greek phonetic equivalent to Mariam, perhaps inspired from Egyptian names suffixed with -arion.'
