1
From the old Saxon fragment called the "Traveller's Song." Hnaf is no doubt from the Ang. – Sax. cnafa, cnapa, son, boy, the Anglo-Saxons often representing c by a (no doubt aspirated) h.
2
Stark also adduces an instance in the eleventh century of Buggo as a contraction of Burchard.

So at least Foerstemann seems to think, observing that we can scarcely derive it from Maur, Æthiops, English "Moor." Nevertheless, seeing the long struggle between the Teutons and the Moors in Spain, it seems to me that such a derivation would be quite in accordance with Teutonic practice. See some remarks on the general subject at the end of Chapter IV.

9
This name appears as Μουνδιλας in Procopius, but, judging by the present pronunciation of Greek, it would sound as Mundila.
10
Hence I take to be the name of the fairy king Oberon. Albruna was also the name of a "wise woman" among the ancient Germans referred to by Tacitus.
11
Probably also A.S. Haluiu – Eng. Halloway.
12
Here probably the name Biracrus, on Roman pottery, corresponding with an O.G. form, Berecar.
13
Or perhaps of beauty, like a Celtic stem tac, found in names of men, and perhaps a corresponding word.
