Winter! Love it!
Ebenezer Fothergill is amazing. And Taunton Elliott. It always cracks me up when people complain about creative spelling and stuff like it's a modern scourge, or crazy names too, cause there are some real gems in old records lol

Bottom: Trajan & Jacoba (main) / Dinadan & Melpomene (GP) / Corvo & Ourania (top25)

I know! I found a few other surprises so I'm making another list of word names which I'll post soon.
ETA: Taunton is a place in SW England, but still a bit of an odd choice for a person's name imo.
