I often consult "Behind the Name" when I encounter a new or unfamiliar given name in my research. Because many of my relatives are of northern German origins I have searched on names and found them under "User Suggested" names. I have have found most of these user suggested names to be correct on further research. My question is to those that administer the "Behind the Name" site; since these are suggested, what are you doing about it. They seem to be legitimate additions. Are you doing further research to try and include them? Why are they languishing in the "User suggested" status? Surely from what I have encountered there is evidence to support these names. I guess I am a little disappointed that nothing seems to have been done to update these additions.
