While watching the TV series Midsomer Murders I came across these two names that were used for characters and would be interested in any information available about them.
Esslyn - masculine, the character it was used on was a British stage actor full name Esslyn Carmichael. It looks a bit Welsh to me but I can't find any info, the closest my searches came were Jesslyn.
Cully - feminine, the character is the daughter of the main police detective. Cully Barnaby is her full name. I assume "Cully" is short for a longer name but throughout the series she's only called by that one name. My own searches brought up Cully, Switzerland and the word Cully meaning "A fool or dupe" also "
Slang pal; mate".
Thanks! :)
