Nedra backwards spells "Arden," which is a Shakespearean place-name. That may be just a coincidence, but there are examples of other names which are words or names spelled backwards, e.g. Enola, Senga.

Oh, interesting. I wonder why the feminization would be Nedra instead of just Neda or Nedda...? Curious!
