Re: "Wynhaeth", "Waendel", "Wiglaf" (Old Norse/ Old English?)
I'd be willing to bet that Waendel is related to Wendel (click link).:-)

Thanks, interesting this one. These people the Wends were totally unknown to myself. Sorry, to have to ask but is Chrisell a girls or boys name?

Chrisell's a fanciful form of ChristineSorry to butt in, Chrisell. But yes, Chrisell's real name is Christine, iirc. The -ell might stand for Chrisell's middle name (Elizabeth? Eleanor?), but I can't remember.

Lol, thanks Miranda :-)Yes, Chrisell is a fabrication, a combination of my first name, Christine, and my middle name, Ellen - created because I needed an 8-character username for my first university email address!However, in perusing the internet I've come across a couple of women with Chrisell as their real name, mostly born around the 1920s, so it does seem to be a legitimate female combo name.:-)

I was (partly) right! Woohoo! :-DI should've kept guessing at the El- middle names though. Sooner or later I would've hit on Ellen, lol.Christine Ellen's a pretty combo. :-)
