Eve is an English given name for a female, derived from Eva, in turn originating with Hebrew חַוָּה (Chavah/Havah - ''chavah'', ''to breathe'', and ''chayah'', ''to live'', or ''to give life''). The traditional meaning of Eve is 'living'. The name has religious significance in the Judeo/Christian/Muslim tradition, after the use of Eve / ''living'' as the female companion of the Biblical Adam / ''man''. Its use as a first name in England began in the 12th Century. Alternative forms: * Eva, popular in many European countries. * Eve as an anglicized form of Gaelic Aoife "radiant, beautiful" in Scotland and Ireland. * Evita * Ieva, a Latvian and Lithuanian form. * Evie, usually a familiar form, now also a given name. == People called Eve == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Eve (name)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
