Etymology
The reconstructed Proto-Celtic lexica at the universities of Leiden<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> and Wales<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> suggest that this name may be derived from Proto-Celtic *Ad-bej-ānos, literally meaning 'at-striking-related-one' and possibly denoting the concept of 'harp-strumming'.
