#1 in Kindle > Vocabulary, Slang, & Word Lists!

Medieval author Joyce DiPastena is always on the lookout for authentic medieval names for her characters. Internet searches are helpful, but occasionally they can lead a writer astray. Accurate lists can be found on the internet, but it can take a deal of searching and double-checking of sources. In "Name Your Medieval Character: Medieval Christian Names (12th-13th Centuries)", DiPastena has done much of this work for you. "Name Your Medieval Character" is a compilation of her 30-plus years of research into medieval Christian names. Every name and name variation in this book was borne by a living, breathing medieval man or woman.

"Name Your Medieval Characters" includes over 800 female names (including variations) and over 1500 male names (including variations). This book will prove a treasure trove for historical fiction writers, fantasy writers, gamers, or anyone who just enjoys names!

"Spend any time with Joyce at all and you will be astonished at the meticulous, detailed [medieval] world she is well familiar with." ~ Bella Online: The Voice of Women
