630 APPENDIX C Jesse, Justin, Kenneth, Llewellyn, Luke, Marcus, Marmaduke, Newton, Pelham, Percy, Redmond, Rees, Reuben, Rupert, Sabine, Shelley, Stanley, Sydney, Ulick, Watkin, Wentworth, Wilton. The following names are found in London charters of the latter half of the twelfth century and in Pipe Rolls of the same date as the preceding list from the Red Book but do not occur among the 600 names given above in 1 1 66 and in 1348: Acmund, Adelard, Ailbricht, Ailnoth or Alnoth, Ailric, Ailwyn, Akard, Albert, Albod, Aldelin, Aldred, Aleelm, Alfwyn, Algar, Alstan, Alulf, Alvric, Alwald, Archil, Aschetil, Auger, Aywak, Azor, Bastian, Berenger, Bertram or Bertrand, Blacsun, Bonenfant, Brihtmere, Claud, David, Dereman, Drew, Druard, Durand, Edred, Edward, Engelger, Ennian, Ernulf, Fulcher, Fulkwin or Fukwin, Gamel, Gerald, Gernagan, Godard, Godebold, Godgiet, Godman, Griffin, Grim, Gudred, Haddon, Hagaman, Harold, Herewald, Hermer, Holegar, Hubert, Joldewin, Jonas, Josce or Jocelyn, Jude, Julian, Lambert, Lewin, Lisor, Meiler, Morgan, Norman, Orgar, Osgot, Osward, Owen, Pentecost, Picot, Saurin, Savaric, Sawin, Serle, Seward, Siric, Solomon, Stigand, Suen, Thorold, Tiold, Ulward, Urri, Walwan (Celtic, and older form of Gawain), Wulwyn (O.E. Wulfwine), Warner, Wibert. Owing to the fact that four very common names, Charles, George, Arthur, and Edward, only came into general use in modern times, and there- fore do not appear until very late in the above list, it has been thought worth while to print also the following short table of the 20 names which at different periods have been commonest in England in the order of their popularity: 1166-7 1299-1327 1347-8 1558 1738 1911 (Villeins) John 14 61 152 141 121 57 William 92 104 84 70 48 51 Thomas 9 44 48 90 56 23 Robert 65 50 67 28 21 20 Richard 48 73 59 53 23 ii Charles — — — I 13 45 Henry 16 60 24 22 11 33 Ralph 29 15 12 II I 5 Roger 25 20 22 II I — George — — — 16 18 27 James — i i 10 23 25 Walter 24 2 lO 6 3 6 Arthur — — — i 2 24 Edward — — 4 16 20 23 Joseph — — — — 22 9 Hugh 21 18 9 5 — 7 Samuel — — — — 19 5 Frederick — — — — 3 19 Alfred 8 — — — — 18 Simon 11 7 17 2 — —
