History & Origin
Aydrien is an Ayd- spelling of Adrian — from Latin Hadrianus, 'of Hadria' (a town in northern Italy that gave its name to the Adriatic Sea; the place-name is linked to 'dark', perhaps for black sand). Borne by the emperor Hadrian and several popes. A crisp, modern name; the Ayd- styling personalizes it (said 'AY-dree-ən'; nickname Ayden).
It registers thinly beside Adrian. Rare in this spelling, of-the-Adriatic at the root, and crisp.
