Re: Names
Hi, everybody. New in this forum. Sorry for my english. I´m spanish and want to help with some of the history dudes about Spain in your fantastic mod.
Ok, let´s begin with the names. This is the list you have posted.
ASTURIA
=======
Pelayo/Pelagius
Favila/Favilac/Fafila
Alfonso
Fruela
Aurelio
Silo
Mauregato
Bermudo/Vermudo/Veremund
Alfonso
Ramiro
Ordoño/Ordono
---
Garcia
Sancho
Ferdinand
Fernando
Urraca
- Surnames:
of Leon
of Galicia
of Asturias
of Navarre
of Castile
Aznarez
Gonzalez
Fernandez
Garces
Sanchez
- "Cognomina":
the Usurper
Deacon
the Chaste
the Great
the Emperor
All are names of kings and queens of Asturias. It´s quite accurate.
Note that "Ferdinand" and "Fernando" are the same name, so you can eliminate one of them (if you have chosed the spanish form for the names eliminate "Ferdinand"). The correct name for Favila could be this one or Fafila. I have never heard about "favilac" (german form, culd be?). Same for Bermudo, that could be scribed as B o V form. Veremund is the germanic form.
