The Dictionary aims to contain all given (fore, Christian) names recorded in European sources written between 600 and 1600, minus the names of historical/non-contemporary people, and names occurring only in fictional literature or poetry. Development of the Dictionary is planned in two phases:
We published the first edition in 2015, containing over 20,000 citations of more than 1,000 different names from Portugal, Spain, Ireland, England, Scotland, France, Italy, Norway, Sweden, Germany, Switzerland, Estonia, Latvia, the Czech Republic, Hungary, and Malta.
