Re: Linde
Linde is a bona fide Swedish names whose origin you'll find at http://www.ancestry.com/facts/linde-name-meaning.ashx. There were many immigrants from Sweden who bore that name as you can see at http://tinyurl.com/2c8hodn. If it was shortened from something like Lindelof or Lindeman, only genealogical research will tell you.

This may not help you with the spelling, but as far as I know I've seen Linde and similar names (like Linda) to mean "soft/tender/delicate" with many origins. Maybe looking up the first name Linda on here may help you? /: Good luck!
