Detailed Slovak etymology analysis

Meno pochádza zo staroanglického osobného mena Bēda, doloženého aj vo variantoch Bǣda a Bīeda. Jeho presný výklad nie je istý; spája sa najmä so staroanglickým slovesom bēodan vo význame „prikazovať, rozkazovať“, tradične tiež so slovami biddan „prosiť, modliť sa“ a bedu „modlitba“. V európskom prostredí sa rozšírilo zásluhou svätého Bedu Ctihodného.
