HelpRe: names I saw doing genealogical research
in reply to a message by hello_1234
Something that someone had explained to me on here while I was doing more of my own genealogy research is that sometimes some of the names are a "typo," a misspelling, or whatnot because the census taker or the records keeper of the era didn't know how to spell it correctly.
That had actually put me down a rabbit hole, and I read about a case where a woman from a couple of hundred years ago stated that she saw her name spelled two different ways before, and she wasn't sure which one was the "correct" one for her.
With that said: I like Elizena, Rosewell, Jarvis, Cordelia, Garnet (I too had a male Garnet), Merlaine, Lorelie
Please rate my "Names I would Use" list & "Backup Favorites" list. Feel free to rate some of my other lists too if you have the time.
