SGNP old english
Compiled by James Holloway.
NOTES
These high-status Old English names come from late Saxon wills and other legal documents. To create more, simply mix and match. Anglo-Saxon families occasionally gave all their children similar names; the sons of Eadmund might be Eadwulf and Eadric, for instance, and a daughter might be Eadgifu.
