Re: Tareija and Biringeira
in reply to a message by overtheclouds
I've just discovered that Tareija is probably another form of Theresa. This article on 14th century Spanish Leonese names gives Tareisa and Tareysa as forms of Theresa: http://www.ellipsis.cx/~liana/names/spanish/leonfarmer.html. They could easily have become Tareija/Tareyja in Portuguese. And Biringeira is definitely a form of Berengaria.
