[Opinions] Re: Virgene

If it were spelt Verjean, I wouldn't have immediately made the connection (at least when reading it). But yup, I do think it would invite at least a few snickers.
There were a couple of women actually named Virgin in some 16th & 17th-century records I looked at recently, so obviously it was acceptable to at least some people as a name, at that point in time.
