Having a Daughter?

Consider one of these awesome Anglo-Saxon names for girls. If I had a daughter, I might well name her "Blaedswith."

  3. I've heard of a Eawynn or two (different spellings if I remember correctly). Like Éowyn from Lord of the Rings.

    Cwenhild sounds rather Germanic. Also, hearing the pronunciation, I'd have to say it would be an albatross of a name, and your daughter would be likely to hate you for it.

    Mildritha appears to be the more ancient form of Mildred.

    I rather like Tate. I'd consider that if we by some strange chance have another girl.
