HelpMelusine Ermengarde
in reply to a message by MariaNikolaievnaRomanova
Melusine Ermengarde van der Shulenberg (sp?) I believe was the name. What a glorious mouthful it is. :-)
The other mistress's name was more conventional, yet still gorgeous. Charlotte Sophia Kellmans (sp?), but I'm not as certain of this one.
One was very thin and the other was very fat. The English court called them "Elephant and Maypole." That might help in a google search.

Glorious is the appropriate adjective! LOL! It reminds me of something Bette Midler once said about her daughter's name. Someone had asked her why she named her daughter Sophie Frederica Alohilani and she responded that she and her husband wanted something that sounded like a German princess locked away in a castle somewhere. I'll have to look up the actual quote as it's quite humourous.
Mélusine and Charlotte Sophia are lovely names, however being known as the Elephant and the Maypole seems quite dreadful. I would pray everyday that I was the Maypole, lol. Thanks for the tip. :)
