We have also _Tray_ as a man's name, and from the same origin as that which I have supposed for the dog's name, though the one is from the German and the other from the Celtic. The stem in men's names is referred to Goth, _tragjan_, to run, and may probably include also _Trail_ (=Tragel) and _Train_ (=Tragen), with the respective endings in _el_ and _en_. Also, from the interchange of _d_ and _t_, we may include _Dray_ and _Drain_.

Among names of the first century is that of Ingomar, uncle of Arminius, which is represented in America by the dreadful name _Inkhammer_, though whether of English or of German origin seems uncertain.

From _s.h.i.+lling_, as a man's name, is derived _s.h.i.+llingsworth_, as a name of local origin (A.S. _weorth_, property), a name like Wordsworth, Dodsworth, &c.
Page 120.
Some doubt may be thrown upon the derivation I have suggested for _Pentecost_ by the name Osbern Pentecost, which comes before us in Anglo-Saxon times. The name seems here to be a surname, and if so would be derived most naturally from the festival.

From this stem, as found in an A.S. Flogg, may be formed the Anglo-Saxon name Flohere (_Thorpe_, p. 636), from _hari_, warrior, whence may be our surnames _Floyer_, _Flower_, and _Flowry_.
Page 171.
Among other names apparently from women are _Ella_, _Eva_, and _Louisa_, in _Suffolk Surnames_. Of these, the first is a regular Saxon man's name, and the second is, I doubt not, the same, corresponding with Eafa found in Eafingas, and with Eafha, the name of a Mercian alderman.
Louisa I should suppose to be the name Louis with a Romanic, perhaps Spanish, but not female, ending.
THE END.
