There is one other thing I would like to know. On the Kings and Queens of Spain, the earliest recorded time is 1000 on the name of Sancho III the Great (Navarre). Is there any earlier recorded time on the Kings of Spain?

A quick googling turned up this:

If the site is reliable (which I did not investigate), the indications jibe with my original thoughts: the long, slow dissolution of the Roman Empire into the Holy Roman Empire slowly opened up into many small kingdoms, including the future-Spanish Pamplona y Navarra, Castilla & Aragonia.
Certainly, "those who would be king" of Navarra must have some good bit of traceable ancestry before their title was so taken, otherwise they would not have had the influence to do so. It should not be difficult to search further.

You may find some info at http://www.behindthename.com/namesakes/spainchro.html
but this is mostly an etymology site and you would be better off at a genealogy site :)
