MORGAINE.
Arthurian. A French form of Morgan (q.v.),
derived from Celtic Morrigan
(q.v.), meaning "great queen."
King
Arthur's sister, Morgana, or Morgaine, Morgue la Fee, or La Fata
Morgana, as she is variously termed in different tongues, was Morgan
Maritime—the derivative from sea. From her, or from some
lingering old Keltic notion in ancient Italy, the Sicilian fisherman
connects the towers and palaces painted on the surface of the
Mediterranean with La Fata Morgana, the lady of the sea. (History of
Christian Names, Yonge, 1884)
