[Facts] Meaning of NORENCISH
I have a friend who has a very unusual middle name; he believes it to be of Norwegian-Scandinavian descent. I have hunted for it's meaning all over the web - to no avail. It could be a combination of NOR + ENCISH but really have no idea. Can anyone out there decipher the possible entimological meaning of this name? Thank you so much.

The only thing vaguely resembling this name I could find was Norensis, and having never come across it before, I am uncertain about how good or bad the site I found it on is.Latin forms of English surnames

It's definitely not Scandinavian. To me it looks like misspelled German.I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones. ~Albert Einstein
