Lombards, Lombardia, Langobardi, or something else for an LNAB? [closed]

Question

One of those fun EuroAristo questions. I guess I tend towards Lombards, but would love to hear others' thoughts.

Comments

I suggest also the surname Lombardi . I am thinking it to be refered as the members of Lombard families.

Answer 1

Following the rules, it should be Longobardi, at least for the VI-VIII th centuries.

I take the opportunity to propose a table in which we would mention the options and the choice we made.

Ideally, it should provide the options in all languages. But for practical reasons, I suggest to limit it to English and the most concerned languages (could be 2 or 3), highligting the one we chose.

Do you mean for the whole range of LNABs within the EuroAristo project? We have a proto-version of that, but I'm constantly losing track of it. Someone posted it in another question a few days ago. I think we should definitely develop it further, along the lines you suggest!

EDIT: Here it is:

It's not much, and we should probably have another page dedicated to choosing LNABs. I'll try to do that this afternoon in my time-zone, but if anyone else wants to start it, please go ahead!

It is a start, but there would much more names. I have a preliminary try and I send it to you in a couple of hours.

Sounds good!

I think there are actually more names listed on the group page itself: http://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:European_Aristocratic_Ancestors_User_Group

That's what I've always used. I didn't even know that other page existed until a few days ago.

Thanks. I am using that list too. I sent a first draft to Roger who made a google doc out of it.

Jacques, do you want me to open that sheet up so anyone with the link can look, and then to publish the link here in G2G? I think it makes sense for people who want to edit to ask me for permission, just so they're not anonymous, so I won't give editing rights to everyone--I'll let them comment, though, it that's OK with you.

Nice.

Here's the link. I'll also give it it's own question. Looks like you can't let anonymous users comment on spreadsheets, so it'll be view only until people ask me for a share.
