Help[Facts] Re: Saintly Names Info, Anyone???
in reply to a message by AndrewJKD
I believe Anysia is a variant of Agnes.
I suppose Annemund could be Old German 'ansi'-a god plus 'mund'-protection (like Old English Osmond) but I doubt it. I would guess it is more Anne, which was likely already a common given name, with the addition of 'mund'- protection, so 'protection of Anne (St. Anne?)'
Is it possible Aleaunie was a misread/misprint of Alcuin?
Cera? Maybe a form of Sarah or Kara?
