Viige (?)

Old farm name. As to actual meaning?... Viiga and Viigi are recorded as forenames in the Tartu region. Plenty for viik:viigi: fig (not that common in the Tropics of Vismeistri), draw or tie, tapeworm, and crease. One dialectal meaning of viik:viigi is bay or cove, which makes vague sense, the street is roughly between Kakumäe and Kopli bays, about 2 & 1 km respectively, but still i not e. Wiedemann has wigl/wiglas:wigla for pitchfork (with more than 2 prongs); and wigle:wigle for godwit or snipe; so lots of straw-clutching but little concrete which is hardly the best choice when you’re sinking anyway… Last shot: I’ll suggest an unrecorded genitive of an old(?) Estonian man’s name Viik(us), which could legitimately genitivize as Viige (see Luige and Kiige).
