This is one of the Academy's earliest reports. We are not confident that these early reports are accurate. Please use it with caution.

Greetings,

We misread your letter and started researching the name "Imbrecht." No one in the Academy knew a great deal about Dutch names, and so we've taken some time to do research--and even found a Dutch names specialist to join the Academy. We were able to document "Imbrecht" as a period Dutch name. That's when we realized that you don't want the name Imbrecht.

However, we've got a lot more information on Dutch names now. I suggest that you check out the Web page

http://www.geocities.com/Athens/1336/dutchbiblio.html

This has a list of sources for names from the Low Countries with detailed annotation. If you can get access to some of these books, you'll be able to pick a name from one of them. The books that are good sources are recommended.

In service,
Alan Fairfax
