	LENDIAN GIVEN NAMES

.
Lendian given names come from a number of different sources. Many are ultimately derived from the Liliani language, from which the modern Lendian language is itself descended. Names such as Aurelio, Septimo, Severina, and Fulvia are in this category. Others are derived from words of modern Lendian, such as Durio (from "duro", meaning strong or resolute) and Zelosa (meaning dedicated or faithful). A small number have entered Lendian naming traditions from Lendosa's minority languages, such as Evensa (taken from Riochan). Other names have religious origins, such as Maria (from Cruisianity) and Niana (from Veldanism).

Many Lendian names have both male and female forms. Often, the two forms will be identical except for their endings, with the male form ending in o and the female form ending in a. This is not always the case, however. For example, the female form of Micualo (one of the Lendian versions of Michael) is not Micuala but Micala (without the u). There are also a number of names which appear to be linked but which are not - the names Saro and Sara, for example, would appear to be simply male and female versions of one another, but actually evolved separately (the name Saro is a contraction of "sarco", meaning "to improve" or "to fix", while Sara is simply the Lendian version of the name Sarah). Sonio and Sonia are another example of false matches.

Historically, the various dialects of Lendian were quite distinct, and often evolved different versions of the same name. For example, the name Maria was used in Lendia itself, but in Piolsa, it was generally rendered as Meria. Today, the Lendian language is much more unified, and names have often been standardised. Some variations, however, were too strong to fade away, and exist side by side with the original form. For example, both Maria and Meria are used in modern Lendian, regardless of geography, and are treated as separate names.
