Something tells me, Dear, that it would probably default to 'Alice' -- that is, the 'i' and the 'y' won't make much difference in the meaning.

And the first time I typed 'Alice' there, it was spelled with a 'y'. See what you've done to me?

They goofed, the origin of Andrew is Greek.

Although some names might have multiple origins, typically there is ultimately only one origin.

As for the name "Andrew". The Latin form of the name is "Andreas", which takes the endings of the first declension (i.e. -a; -ae; -ae; -am; -a for singular and -ae; -arum; -is; -as; -is for plural) except in the nominative\vocative, where it is "Andreas", not "Andrea". This peculiarity only occurs in names loaned from Greek. The Greek form of the name is AndreaV, with Greek endings (i.e. -aV; -ou; -ai; -an; -a in the singular and -ai; -wn; -aiV; -aV; -ai in the plural) a regular pattern for masculine nouns of the first declension.

Your name, by the by, also derives from Greek--how do you see it as having multiple origins?

Just imagine that all those funky Greek forms are in the font "Symbol".

I've read that it's both Latin and Greek, thats how I see it as having multiple orgins..

If something masquerades as being "both" Latin and Greek, chances are, it's, ultimately, only Greek.
