I've always wondered why people in Tudor times gave their children such excruciatingly boring Christian names, especially because there was so much more variety in Christian names in previous ages (including the Anarchy). However I should add that I don't like the other extreme either, where people give their children downright peculiar names like Peaches or Tigerlily. It makes the children ridiculous and they are very likely to suffer at school as a result.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7033960139420817450.post-85134621149726111472015-09-08T04:49:10.642-07:002015-09-08T04:49:10.642-07:00Greetings from Canada.

Gregory and looking for information on Richard the York king. <br /><br />Am going to read your blog from beginning to end. <br /><br />Thanks so much for your research and your blog. farmgirlwanabehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14358049476141619352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7033960139420817450.post-63406403959001127492012-12-07T02:16:52.290-08:002012-12-07T02:16:52.290-08:00Thank you Sylwia, I searched through so many paris...Thank you Sylwia, I searched through so many parish records to compile these lists! It's really surprising to learn there were so few names at the time, given how much choice parents have today. My mother grew up in the area and tells me many of the surnames I found are still in use there. I'm glad you enjoyed it.<br />Best wishes, AmyAmy Licencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16872294626668954201noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7033960139420817450.post-43979046845638457492012-11-27T14:04:40.873-08:002012-11-27T14:04:40.873-08:00What a wonderful and informative article!
