"Moin" meaning "Good Morning", and "
MoinMoin" being an emphasis, i.e. "A
Very Good Morning". The name was obviously chosen for its
WikiWikiNess.
No! Originally "MoinMoin" does not mean "Good Morning". "Moin" just means "good" or "nice" and in northern Germany it is used at any daytime, so "Good day" seems more appropriate. --

Mmmmh , seems that I can enrich so more info: "Moin" has the meaning of "Good Morning" but it is spoken under murmur like "mornin'" although the Syllable is too short alone, so it is spoken twice. If you shorten "Good Morning" with "morn'" it has the same effect with "morn'morn'". --Thomas Albl
We use it all day in the south too. I always thought it just morphed from a morning greeting to an all-day one. -- J
