Subject: English names derived from animals
Author: Emden   (guest, 208.181.210.171)

My brother sent me the following trivia question: What percent of English names (I'm assuming both given and surname) are derived from the names of animals? The answer choice ranges from 1% to 8%. Anyone have any knowledge of this? Thanks.
