Reply to: meaning of my name, and origin? by Cynyslende
I have no idea whether or not this is a real medieval English name or not. But the beginning syllable Cyn- in Old English names often meant "royal" or "king." You need to try to find a work on Old English names to see if Cynyslende could possibly be a real name from that time, or if it's just an invention of the author.
