I disliked California intensely and fled before I had a chance to get 
into many classes which really interested me. (I had to go through the 
modern stuff before getting into Norse, and it was almost more than I 
could endure.  Doom and gloom, doom and gloom. In what creative ways 
can we torture our characters today?)

Are you needing somebody who can do name translations, or somebody 
who knows where to look for existing Norse names?   I'd probably be 
more help at the latte, but would be willing to attempt the former, 
with the understanding that my limited amount of knowledge may be worse 
than useless.  I really don't have much of an idea as to what is 
actually involved in the heraldic process, but I could (should) learn.
