RE: [Goanet] Portuguese Names.

Looking good, Alfred, say hi to them all for me !   I will look into mother's name: it is very popular with the Irish, and if you remember my early  post on the subject,  Keltic-Kaltik,  Egyptian princess Skadda = Skodda=Scotta=Scott,  and  Kaliduniya=Caledonia.  Mauritania is Berber,  the language is Sindi-like,  the Tunisian version is called Chellah,  a link can be espoused.   Mary is really Mari, we know it, you will find a town called Mari in Israel, Iran and Paki Punjab, that one becoming Murree to  Oxford Kiplings in the colonial  ICS !  Enjoy your Murree beer,  a Parsee owns the company, nice web site.  Best,  Eric.

Eric,

My eldest daughter's name is Alva Maura, but nothing of
levantine origin:

We concocted it from Alfred and my wife, Eva.

But Maura, my mother's name I believe has.

Could you please inform?

Alfred
