Members of the SCA in America have expressed an anxiety
as to whether the entries in the medieval section could be counted
as genuine as they have a very strict system. Although these lists
may contain names that were very rare, in no case are they invented.
As some sources may have only provided one name, it is not practical
to list all of them but no name is added to a list unless there
is a genuine instance of its occurrence.
Some of the following sources were not actually used
in the compilation of Onomastikon and their listing here should
not be taken as a recommendation or indication of availability.
Many of the names (particularly those from the Medieval and Celtic
sections) were collected long before there was any intention of
putting them out as a web site so records of sources were not
properly kept but I hope to be able to sort this out eventually.
Each separate list was taken from many different
sources such as news programmes, history books, novels and magazines.
For modern names, the sports programmes are especially useful
as they tend to put names of competitors on screen. Although I
do use the internet to some extent, there is often a difficulty
in attributing names to the right country so I tend not to rely
on it.
I must confess to using historical novels occasionally - usually only those writers whose characters actually existed though! These include: Lindsay Davies, Colleen McCullough, Mary Stewart, Mary Renault, Robert Graves, Rosemary Sutcliff, Edith Pargeter, Jean Plaidy, Juliet Dymoke, Henry Treece, Nigel Tranter, Margaret Irwin, D.K. Broster among others.
