Adler number: alpha,2658

Notes:
[1] Most obviously that of one of the daughters of Oedipus, in mythology. See generally OCD(4) s.v. (pp.101-2).
[2] Theoretically related to Antigone but in practice (cf. generally LSJ s.v., at web address 1, as well as what follows here) far more likely to derive from the masculine version of the name, Antigonos (the name of several Macedonian kings).
[3] cf. alpha 2763, end.
