The FÖRSTEMANN, as far as I know, is not available in English. It's hardly available at all, you'll find it in a good library, and you don't need to know German to use it. Förstemann gives most meanings in Latin, and apart from that lists tons of names through the centuries. Maybe Cleve knows more about profound works in English.
