Máedóc of Ferns
Saint Máedóc ( 6th & 7th century), also known as Mogue and Aidan ((アイルランド語:Áedan); (ウェールズ語:Aeddan); (ラテン語:Aidanus) and ''ラテン語:Edanus''), was an Irish saint, founder and first bishop of Ferns in County Wexford and a patron of other churches, such as Rossinver in County Leitrim and Drumlane in County Cavan.
==Name==
"Aidan" is a diminutive form of the Celtic name Aodh, Aedh, or Aed, originally Oed in Old Irish and Udd in Old Welsh.〔Baring-Gould, Sabine & al. (''The Lives of the British Saints: The Saints of Wales and Cornwall and Such Irish Saints as Have Dedications in Britain'', Vol. I, pp. 122 ff ). Chas. Clark (London), 1908. Hosted at Archive.org. Accessed 18 Nov 2014.〕 The name meant "fire" and is related to the god of the underworld in Irish mythology, although it was also used as a form of the Latin name Dominus.〔 It was formerly often anglicized as Hugh.〔 "Madoc" and "Mogue" are other pet forms of Aodh, formed from the Celtic diminutive suffix ''-og'' and the Irish affectionate prefix ''mo-'',〔 meaning something like "my dear little Aedh". In some Welsh sources, he appears as Aeddan Foeddog or Foeddawg; the epithet Foeddog is merely a mutated reduplication of his name: Aeddan Maedoc.〔
