Help[Opinions] Re: Medieval English Feminine Names
in reply to a message by Llewella
Ok I am totally gaga for these:
Admiranda - I'm not normally a Miranda fan, but this is shivery-great. Makes me think of a sea Admiral and pirates.
Belissendis - and Belisant, Belsante, gorgeous
Brightwyna - This would be stunning modernized as "Brightwen"
Dæglufu - Daylove, Dayluue. They can come play with Loveday any time!
Eglentyne - Aiglentine. I love both of these
Emelot, Amelot - cute!
Epicelena - makes me think of spices, from the french word for spice, épice.
Estrangia - witchy!
Éastorhild - Estrild is so beautiful, so silvery-light! The "Easter" part could also be from the Germanic Eostre, which is from austro, "to shine", and is related to Ostara, the goddess of springtime (and where the word Easter comes from). So maybe it means "shining battle"?
Finepopla - heeeeeee!
Hyssmaye - oooooo. reminds my of Hyssop, which is an oft-forgotten GP of mine
Imagantia - this sounds like the title of a fantasy video game. I'm loving that.
Loverun - "whisper of love" = AMAZING
Merewen - no ideas on meaning, but this name is a real looker, very glossy and neat.
Scolace - oooh, reminds me of Solace, which would be an EXCELLENT word-name
Sedemaiden - is this male or female? I think it would make a gorgeous girl's name
Wichtiva - more witchy fun!
These were great Shannon! Thanks for sharing!
