HelpRe: Dangereuse! And other Medieval royal names... (long)
in reply to a message by erb816
Part of me wants to say that Dangereuse was an alias. Dangereuse was a 'muse' to William the Troubadour Duke of Aquitaine. If I remember my medieval history correctly, the troubadours wrote mainly to try to get the 'muse' into their bed. If that is true, Aenor might have married her half brother.
But, I'm also descended from a bastard son of John of England and his cousin Adele. Adele's dad was the bastard son of Geoffrey Plantagenet, John's paternal grandfather.

It would make sense if Dangereuse were an alias, because when I was reading about her I kept thinking, "Wow, she really lived up to her name!"
I don't think, however, that Aenor married her half brother, but rather her stepbrother (although I don't think William and Dangereuse ever actually married...).

Just because he tried to get her in his bed doesn't mean he tried to marry her.
