Hmmm...I see lots of names in this list (including my own) that are Celtic variants (spelling or derived from surnames or placenames). Also a number of miscellaneous Celtic names, like Cornish. Most of these don't have the historical legs to be classified as "ancient Celtic".

How about a category of "Celtic-derived" or "Celtic variants"?

•A catagory that might be helpful is American Literature. · Tracie · 3/7/2002, 4:25 PM

•But then all the other entries in the Literature category would have to be divided into different nationalities....sounds tricky. n/t · Barb · 3/7/2002, 5:37 PM

•I agree. There should just be a single literature category for now. n/t · Mike C · 3/7/2002, 11:16 PM
