HelpRe: 16th century Manx names
in reply to a message by miraje
Ooh, fun! I love Manx names, they always feel like an interesting twist on the usual Celtic ones I'm familiar with.
I like:
Abel
Allow
Fynlo
Gilander - this is soooo cool
Gilmere
Nele - do you know how this would be pronounced? Like Nella?
Otnel
Paton
Thomlyn
Thormot
Calibrid
Calychrist
Calyvorri

Not sure about the pronunciation of Nele, the page didn't specify. An article on namepedia marked Nele (m, Manx) as a variant of Niall, which makes me think it might be "neel" or maybe "neel-uh".
