It looks like you have quite the soft spot for Frisian names! I hope you don't mind if I point you to a few other sources that might be of interest to you:- Fryske foarnammen / Friese voornamen written by Rienk de Haan (bought the book on Bol.com a few years ago, but it seems to have gone out of print since - maybe you'll still be able to find it in a library, antiquary or places like Marktplaats)- Ostfriesische Vornamen von A bis Z written by Manno Peters Tammena (also out of print, but you can still find some used copies on Amazon Deutschland)- Friesche Naamlijst (Onomasticon Frisicum) written by Johan Winkler (available for free in PDF at http://www.wumkes.nl/index.php?volg=8&id=95 - click on the red-coloured word "document" in order to download the file)- "Rufnamen auf den Inseln Föhr, Amrum und Sylt von ca. 1600 bis 1900" (männlich): http://www.amtfa.de/friesVornm.pdf- "Rufnamen auf den Inseln Föhr, Amrum und Sylt von ca. 1600 bis 1900" (weiblich): http://www.amtfa.de/friesVornw.pdf- http://nds.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_vun_plattd%C3%BC%C3%BCtsche_V%C3%B6rnaams (in Low German, but contains East Frisian and North Frisian given names)Also, if you like Anemoon, then the French name Aymone (also found spelled as Aimone) might possibly be up your alley as well - feel free to check it out! :)
