Meaning & Origin of Alinda

Origin: Uncertain as a personal name; Wiktionary's 'Alinda' entry is an unrelated ancient Greek place name, a city in Caria.

A common claim: "Noble serpent" (Germanic, by analogy with similar '-linda' names like Belinda and Melinda) Actually: There's no evidence tying 'Alinda' to Germanic roots meaning 'noble' and 'serpent'; the only attested 'Alinda' in Wiktionary is an unrelated ancient place name. The '-linda = serpent' link is also a disputed etymology across the wider family of similar names, like Belinda and Melinda.
