Naming Conventions

• Main principles
• Name as close to original name as possible, language, geography and time period to be taken into consideration
• French names for French people (thus: Richard I 'Sans-Peur' de Normandie, not Richard I 'the Fearless' of Normandy)
• Titles usually go in the last name field
• Adjust first name field to avoid misunderstandings or mistaken identity where necessary, by adding order/number or byname.
• All names a person is known by in any source listed in “nicknames": bynames (especially in English), additional titles, variations.

Main Sources

The Foundation of Medieval Genealogy has an extensive overview, based solely on primary sources, which should be used as our first source:

• Dukes of Normany
• Norman nobility
