Re: has anyone ever heard Cet?
in reply to a message by jorry
"Cet" sounds like a diminutive of some kind -- either invented by the author or actually derived from an Arthurian era name. It could conceivably be a name derived from the Welsh name "Cedrych". (See Cedric ).-- Nanaea

If the author is taking any liberties with the time period (which most do with Arthurian pieces), it could also derive from the Old Scandinavian "Ketil" (still used in Norwegian), or the Anglo-Saxon "Cytra", both male names. Both these names occurred in England from about AD 700 til 900-1100.- Da.
