1. According to the site, Cordelia is supposed to come from the Celtic name Cordeilla. Anyone know what it means?

2. Bavon or Bavo was a saint with a cathedral in Ghent. He's called Baaf in Belgium. What's the origin/meaning of the name?

---

3. Jaenbert was an 8th century Anglo-Saxon monk. His name has many variants:

---

Jaenberht
Jaenbeorht
Janibert
Janbriht
Jambert
Lambert
Lanbriht
Genegberht

---

The Lambert variation sounds a bit dubious but Lambert could be a form of Jaenbert, I guess. Anyway, anyone know what Jaenbert means?

---

Thanks to anyone who can help.
