Neda

Go for a factual approach to baby names with this Slavid option. Neda, a girl's name, means "born on Sunday" and comes from the word nedelja, the Slovenian word for "Sunday." If you go by the old rhyme, any child born on Sunday will be "bonny and blithe, and good and gay," which is definitely something worth reminding baby of. Neda is an Arcadian nymph in Greek mythology who nurtured Zeus as a child. Today, there is a river and a town named after her. Neda could also be a feminine form of Ned, an Old English nickname that means "wealthy guard."
