Patrin, Lel, Brencis, Bexhet & Salek
I've been reading some books on the Romany people lately and some of the name that I've come across I have not been able to find the meanings to. All of these names are male and the "gypsies" all lived in Romania and Turkey.Patrin
Lel
Brencis
BexhetAnd correct me if I'm wrong, but Salek is from Selig, right?If anyone has any information or could lead me to a site with reliable meanings to some Romany names, I'd be grateful. Thanks!-Seda*

I'm only using general knowledge, not any specific knowledge, but Brencis screams Francis to me, and Patrin might be related to Peter or Patrick (Peter is more likely imo).
