I ran into a German genealogy website some months ago and I've recently checked what names were borne in Bessarabia, which is a historical region where Germans settled, today part of Moldova and south-western Ukraine.

I've divided the list into common and interesting German Bessarabian names by gender. What are your thoughts on them? Comments on all names are much appreciated!
