Adrian is a form of the Latin given name Adrianus or Hadrianus. Its ultimate origin is most likely via the former river Adria from the Venetic and Illyrian word adur, meaning 'sea' or 'water'. The Adria was until the 8th century BC the main channel of the Po River into the Adriatic Sea but ceased to exist before the 1st century BC. Hecataeus of Miletus (c.550 - c.476 BC) asserted that both the Etruscan harbor city of Adria and the Adriatic Sea had been named after it. Emperor Hadrian's family was named after the city or region of Adria/Hadria, now Atri, in Picenum, which most likely started as an Etruscan or Greek colony of the older harbor city of the same name.
Several saints and six popes have borne this name, including the only English pope, Adrian IV, and the only Dutch pope, Adrian VI. As an English name, it has been in use since the Middle Ages though it was not popular until modern times.

The lateralization of brain function refers to how some neural functions, or cognitive processes tend to be more dominant in one hemisphere than the other. The medial longitudinal fissure separates the human brain into two distinct cerebral hemispheres, connected by the corpus callosum. Although the macrostructure of the two hemispheres appear to be almost identical, different composition of neuronal networks allow for specialized function that is different in each hemisphere.
The extent of any modularity, or specialization of brain function by area, remains under investigation.With two brain hemispheres, this allows for both specialization and redundancy of functions, which naturally allows some protection from damage. The hemispheres exhibit strong, but not complete, bilateral symmetry in both structure and function. With either side of the brain having a right and left hemispheric side of each cerebral lobe. However, despite the brain’s ability to compensate for some amount of damage through neural plasticity and bilateral symmetry some damage in specific areas of the brain can cause deficits in normal brain functioning, including certain language deficits. These include general aphasias, aphasias being a loss of language ability due to brain damage, and more specifically the aphasias associated with brain damage or lesions specific to Broca’s and Wernicke’s area.
