From: hstewart@magnus.acs.ohio-state.edu (Harold D Stewart) Subject: Possible names The following are all real names of actual medieval rulers. Perhaps some of you might want to use some of the more interesting in your campaigns (Priest Hater, Law Mender, Evergood, etc.) My personal favourite is Black Charles the Good. Alfred the Great Fulk the Red Magnus the Law-Mender Edward the Elder William the Toulousan Erik the Priest Hater Edgar the Peaceful Geoffrey Greymantle Haakon Longlegs Edward the Martyr Geoffrey the Bearded Harald Bluetooth Aethelred the Unready Fulk the Surly Sven Forkbeard Edmund Ironside Fulk the Younger Erik the Evergood Canute the Great Geoffrey the Fair Erik the Memorable Harold Harefoot Charles the Lame Erik the Lamb Edward the Confessor Rene the Good Erik Ploughpenny William the Conqueror Alan Wrybeard Boleslav the Cruel Richard Lionheart Conan the Crooked Wladyslaw the Exile Merfyn the Freckled John the Conqueror Boleslaw the Curly Rhodri the Great Otto the Child Casimir the Just Idwal the Bald Otto the Severe Leszek the White Hywel the Good Henry the Singular Wladyslaw Spindleshanks Llywelyn the Last Otto the Mild Leszek the Black Niall of the Nine Hostages Magnus the Pious Vlad the Impaler Pepin the Short William the Victorious Vsevolod Big Nest Louis the Pious Henry the Middle Simeon the Proud Charles the Bald Ernest the Confessor Ivan the Gentle Louis the Stammerer Henry the Pacific Ivan the Dread Charles the Fat Henry the Iron Bohemond the One-Eyed Charles the Simple Herman the Learned Baldwin the Leper Louis the Sluggard Louis the Peaceful Alfonso the Catholic Robert the Pious Henry the Rich Vermudo the Deacon Louis the Fat William the Constant Alfonso the Chaste Louis the Lion William the Just Alfonso the Monk Philip the Bold Eberhard the Quarrelsome Sancho the Fat Louis the Stubborn Ulrich the Beloved Ordono the Bad Philip the Tall Harald Fairhair Vermudo the Gouty Charles the Fair Erik Bloodaxe Sancho the Strong John the Good Haakon the Good Sancho the Desired Charles the Wise Harald Graycloak Sancho the Fierce Charles the Mad Olav the Gentle Ferdinand the Summoned Charles the Victorious Manus Barelegs Henry the Sickly Ebalus the Bastard Sigurd the Crusader Henry the Impotent William Towhead Magnus the Blind Joan the Crazy William the Brave Inge the Hunchback Garcia the Tremulous William the Troubador Haakon the Broadshouldered Alfonso the Battler Garcia the Restorer Sancho the Wise Charles the Bad Charles the Noble Wilfred the Hairy Berengar Raymond the Crooked Berengar the Fratricide Raymond the Great Raymond Berengar the Saint Ramiro the Monk James the Conqueror Peter the Great Alfonso the Liberal Alfonso the Benign Peter the Ceremonious John the Hunter Martin the Humane Alfonso the Magnanimous Denis the Farmer Alfonso the African John the Perfect Prince Manuel the Fortunate Henry the Navigator Henry the Cardinal Louis the Child Henry the Fowler Welf the Fat Henry the Proud Henry the Black Leopold the Glorious Frederick the War-Like Albert the Lame Rudolf the Founder Albert the Patient Ernest the Iron Thibaut the Great Thibaut the Posthumous Henry the Fat William Longsword Richard the Fearless Robert the Magnificent Robert Curthose Geoffrey the Fair Robert the Wise Baldwin Ironarm Arnulf the Unfortunate Black Charles the Good Henry the Blind Gozelo the Sluggard Godfrey the Hunchback John the Victorious Richard the Justiciar Eudes the Red Philip the Bold John the Fearless Hugh the Black Charles the Rash Philip the Handsome Conrad the Pacific William the Silent James the Just Frederick the Simple Cosimo the Elder Piero the Gouty Lorenzo the Magnificent Humbert Whitehands Humbert the Fat Amadeus the Great Aymon the Pacific Amadeus the Green Count Amadeus the Red Count Philibert the Hunter Charles the Warrior Charles Emmanuel the Great Charles the Good
