Talk:Genobaud

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Genobald

I suppose the name 'Genobaud' comes from a modern French source, and that the right English name should be Genobald. Soczyczi 11:10, 12 June 2007 (UTC)

No, certainly not. The name comes from the latin primary source Gregory of Tours and is reckognizable Low Franconian - That is "proto-Dutch". I only stripped the -us from Genobaudus, but that is regular for most English scholars.

If Genobaud would have been a Saxon or an Angel (which he is not) he might have been called "Waterbald". But I think It's not a good idea to name him like that.johanthon 11:59, 12 June 2007 (UTC)
