Avlida (given name)
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
Avlida (Russian: Авли́да) is a Russian female first name.[1] In 1924–1930, the name was included into various Soviet calendars,[2] which included the new and often artificially created names promoting the new Soviet realities and encouraging the break with the tradition of using the names in the Synodal Menologia.[3] This particular name was after Avlida, a town in Boeotia, where according to a legend, the Greek army set sail for the Trojan War and which served as the setting for the Euripides play Iphigenia in Aulis.[1]
