ἤϊε

Grammatical information: voc.

Meaning: surname of Φοῖβε with unknown meaning and unknown origin (Ο 365, Υ 152, h. Ap. 120).

Origin: XX [etym. unknown]

Etymology: Several hypotheses: from the interjection ἤ like ἰήϊος from ἰή (LSJ; cf. ἤϊος παιανιστής H. beside πορεύσιμος; s. 1. ἤϊα); not from ἠώς (cf. ἠϊ-κανός) as `shining in the morning' (Bq with Ehrlich KZ 40, 364); nor from ἵημι (or Skt. ásyati `throw') as `firer' (Aristarch and Froehde BB 19, 235).
