Latinized Given Names

Latinized Given Names


English names generally did not develop from Latin but rather the principles of Latin were applied later; variations in these 'Latinized' forms are therefore to be expected. Remember that letters 'i' and 'j' as well as 'u' and 'v' were used interchangeably, so that Jacobus often appears as Iacobus and Avicia as Auicia, for example.

This list will be added to from time to time. It is composed of names collected from various sources including parish registers and is not limited to any particular time period.
