## Description

The Dictionary of Medieval Names from European Sources is a comprehensive reference dedicated to cataloging given names recorded in European documents between the years 500 and 1600. This initiative aims to exclude names from historical figures and fictional works, focusing solely on contemporary names. Developed in two phases, the Dictionary first explores sources from regions such as Great Britain, Ireland, and Scandinavia, before expanding to Eastern European countries including Romania, Greece, and Ukraine. Since its inception in 2015, the Dictionary has published quarterly editions, amassing over 20,000 citations of more than 1,000 distinct names from varied locales such as Portugal, Spain, and Hungary. The project is spearheaded by a team of scholars, led by Dr. Sara L. Uckelman from Durham University, and features contributions from various experts across multiple institutions. For those interested in ongoing updates and insights, the team encourages readers to follow their blog, ensuring a rich engagement with the evolving landscape of medieval naming conventions.
