Etymology
First attested as aladna in 828. Etymology nl unclear. Likely derived from a phytonym (compare non alað food, non aldin edible fruit, gmq-osw alda fruit-bearing oak). A proposed derivation from a hydronym derived from ine-pro *alat- shining, bending outward is far-fetched. Not etymologically related to nl aal poplar, Populus. Potentially related to nl Aalden.
