Detailed Slovak etymology analysis

Ena vznikla v rozličných jazykových prostrediach nezávisle. V chorvátskom prostredí sa spoľahlivo dokladá najmä ako skrátená podoba Ireny, pôvodom z gréckeho eirēnē „mier“; uvádza sa aj súvislosť s Jelenou alebo írskym menom Eithne. Jedinú všeobecne platnú etymológiu preto nemožno určiť.
