Linden (female)

Derivative of:Linda (F)
   
Source(s): The Oxford Names Companion, OUP
Notes:

English, late 19th or 20th century derivative of Linda [q.v.].

Note: ONC also tentatively suggests the name may be derived from the Old English "linde", the "lime tree" [cf German Linden] although its use is probably too recent for that to be a likely source.
