3: Edda of Bordermarch - Resub Name (KLoI) (NP)

Submitter desires a feminine name.

Original Submission Bonne Bleue - retuned on LoAR 10.2021

http://www.vikinganswerlady.com/ONWomensNames.shtml

E.H. Lind Dopnamn col. 208 s.n. <Edda> has this feminine name as a purely mythological character in the Poetic Edda. However, in Biskupa sögur (13th - early 14th c.) there is an <Edda Háreks d.>, and in Biskop Eysteins Jordbók c.1400 there is a placename <Æddu rud>.

4: Fynn Alreksson - New Name (KLoI) (NP) & New Device (KLoI)

Vert ermined Or, a dog rampant maintaining a sword argent

No major changes.
Language/Culture (early Early Scandinavian) most important.

Submitter has decided to go with the first name Fyr as shown in documention for Orle

Documented from Gunnvǫr silfraharr, Old Norse Men's Names, http://www.vikinganswerlady.com/ONMensNames.shtml

Finnr - masculine given name

Alreksson - from the masculine given name <Alrekr>. The patronymic is formed by dropping the nominative case <-r> and adding genitive <-s>, plus <-son>.

Old Norse has no i/y switch. Y in Old Norse is a U sound. So, from the info cited here, the name we can actually document is <Finnr Alreksson>. NOT <Fynn>.

Checking E.H. Lind Dopnamn cols. 272-274 s.n. <Finnr>, we have two spellings of this masculine given name using Y, a 1450 <Fyn> and a 1478 <Ffyn>. So if he wanted to be long after the Viking Age, he could be <Fyn Alreksson>.

5: Gunnar Bjornulfson - New Name (KLoI) (NP) & New Device (KLoI)

Per saltire Or and sable, a bear and a wolf combatant Or.

Submitter desires a masculine name.

Documentation from E.H. Lind Dopnamn

Gunnarr - masculine given name (cols. 403-405 s.n. <Gunnarr>).

Bjǫrnúlfsson - patronymic formed from the masculine name <Bjǫrnúlfr> (cols. 147-148 s.n. <Biǫrnúlfr>). The patronymic is formed by dropping the nominative case <-r> and adding genitive <-s>, plus <-son>. The submitter has elected to omit diacricals throughout.

The submitted name therefore should be <Gunnarr Bjornulfsson>.

Hávarðr - masculine given name. Submitter prefers to drop special characters and use <Harvardhr>. See Gunnvǫr silfrahárr's Old Norse Men's Names, http://www.vikinganswerlady.com/ONMensNames.shtml

Knútr - Old Norse byname meaning "knot", though Lind suggests a meaning of "hunchback". E.H. Lind Personbinamn col. 208 s.n. <Knútr>.

I suggest checking in with the submitter about that "hunchback" meaning.

without special characters or diacritics:

<Havardhr Knutr>

10: Ulrik inn svarti Þórvaldzson - New Name (KLoI) (NP) & New Device (KLoI)

Sable, two bendlets vert fimbriated argent

Submitter desires a masculine name.
Spelling (no example given) most important.

we're submitting here. Lind and Finnur Jónsson are Appendix H No-Photocopy sources.

Ulrik - The masculine given name <Ulrik> originates from Old High German <Ulrich>. Checking the Diplomatarium Danicum (https://diplomatarium.dk/search...), the earliest use in Danish appears in 1348, in reference to a Bishop Ulrik, who was likely German in origin.

Þórvaldr - E.H. Lind Dopnamn cols. 1212-1214 s.n. <Þórvaldr> says this name was very common in Norway and Iceland from the time of the Settlement of Iceland to the end of our period. Lind gives the genitive as <Þórvaldz>, and we add <-son> to create the patronymic.

inn svarti - Old Norse descriptive byname meaning "the black", one with black hair or black beard, found throughout our period. See: E.H. Lind Personbinamn cols. 371-373 s.n. <Svarti>. Also: Finnur Jónsson's Tilnavne i den Islandske Oldlitteratur s.n. <hinn svarti>.
