Re: WDYTO Robin?
Morgan le Fay is a female character in Arthurian myth dating back hundreds of years if not more than a thousand. Spelt in any number of ways, it appeared as Morgan fairly early on.Morgan as a male name, however, is a transferred Welsh surname and hasn't been used as a fn for anything like as long.I'll be honest though. I absolutely hate it either way...http://www.behindthename.com/pnl/167578

Actually Morgan & Morcant appear as first names in the Book of Llandaff, which is a collection of manuscripts and charters dating back to c. 500. And it's been consistently in use ever since.
