Thanks Satu - where can i get a copy of the type face you use that allows for extra marks/ accents over the top of the letter?.
I had guessed that the first part was summer, but just wasn't sure of the rest, Thanks once again. Can you recommend any sites or books (in english)?
Miranda, once again thanks, i looked at the site, very interesting, i'll look into this one further!
any other tips?
regards Bagpus and friends....

I haven't been interested in Norse names much, so I haven't actively searched for sites on the subject. However, I do know of one site that has some good info on how Viking parents named their children: http://snipurl.com/d3ey.
I hope you find the site useful. :-)

Hi Bagpus and friends,
If you use Windows, you can switch to foreign keyboards (e.g. Icelandic for signs like ð þ ó ö etc.) here:
Start - control panel - region and language options.
Or you can use Alt-number-combinations

Sorry, but I don't know any good English book about Nordic names. I use books in Swedish, Danish, Finnish, Norwegian and Icelandic instead. I'm working on an internet site about Nordic names at the moment (in English), but it will take a few more months until it will be online.
Regards, Satu
