Medieval Names

I am using this:
Lucifer's Onomastikon (Dictionary of Names)
Mostly because I'm actually using names from antiquity. But it actually has a list of names for different periods (Ancient, Medieval), different areas (all six inhabited continents) and even some ancient and medieval ethnic groups.

That's an excellent resource. I wish it cited sources, but that's an academician's niggle. What I do like is that the site provides more information than just the names. I've added this one to my resources bookmarks.
