    Nest- Nestir (?)
    Nest's etymology
    O.E. nest "bird's nest, snug retreat," from P.Gmc. *nistaz (cf. M.L.G., M.Du., Ger. nest), from PIE *nizdo- (cf. Skt. nidah "resting place, nest," L. nidus "nest," O.C.S. gnezdo, O.Ir. net, Welsh nyth, Bret. nez "nest"), probably from *ni "down" + *sed- "sit." Used since M.E. in ref. to various accumulations of things (e.g. a nest of drawers, early 18c.). The verb is O.E. nistan, from P.Gmc. *nistijanan. Nest egg "retirement savings" is from 1700, originally "a real or artificial egg left in a nest to induce the hen to go on laying there" (1
    Daughter- Dustr/Tusdr

    O.E. dohtor, from P.Gmc. *dochter, earlier *dhukter, from PIE *dhugheter (cf. Ger. tochter, Skt. duhitar-, Armenian dustr, O.C.S. dusti, Lith. dukte, Gk. thygater). The modern spelling evolved in southern England, 16c.

            I have not found any cognates between Scottish/Irish Gaelic and Hayeren, although my Hayeren isn't good and I'm still learning it.

            Also I thought the brunt and majority of Armenian is taken from Urartian?
            I have read from various sources that there is a genetic link between Armenians, Irish, Welsh and Basques.

                    Yeah, I read an interesting article just now linking Irish ancestry to Basques: http://www.sott.net/article/263587-D...iously-thought

                    Where did you read that its related to Armenians?

                      I simply looked up "who are the basque" on google. Found a site stating the Basque trace their ancestry to Hayastan. Many word connections and place name connections as well as folklore.
