Re: Medieval Goodness

I lurve Jacquetta. If you watch the series The White Queen (oh my gosh, I love it so much), the character of Jacqetta is the best character in the series.
I descend from the Plantagenets (it's not unusual), so a lot of these names are familiar to me.
I also like:
Arthur
Aymer
Baldwin
Benoît
Bernard
Bohemond -- I'm related to this one, I know.
Conan
Edmund
Edward
Eneas -- Oooh, that one is neat.
Enguerrand / Ingelram
Eustace
Ferdinand / Fernando
Fulk
Geoffrey (only seemed to be used in the High Middle Ages; I didn't encounter it after the thirteenth century)
Helias
Lothar -- cool
Odo
Owain -- cool
Adela
Adelaide
Adeliza
Aenor
Agatha
Agnes
Alice / Alix
Aliénor (Eleanor of Aquitaine's real name)
Anfide
Anne
Beatrice
Birgitta / Bridget
Catherine / Katherine
Cecilia / Cecily
Clementia / Clémence
Ela
Eleanor
Elizabeth
Euphemia
Herleva
Ida
Isabel / Isabella / Isabelle
Jacquetta
Jean
Joan
Katarina
Margaret
Mary
Marjorie
Märta
Matilda / Mafalda
Sybilla
Urraca
