There is a submitter in Northkeep who is interested in the following name:

>Coravinda inghen Kynneth (sp?)

The submitter says that Coravinda appears on a list of pictish names 
from the SCA heralds site (author unknown at this time and I haven't 
checked yet).

The inghen is intended to be the "daughter of" gaelic word that I 
also don't know how to spell off the top of my head.

And the submitter believes that Kynneth is an older precursor to 
modern MacKenzie.  The precursor to MacKenzie is most important to 
her.

First question:  Can you have a pictish first name with a gaelic patronymic?

Second question: Spelled correctly, put in the correct genitives, 
etc., does this name appear plausable for registration?

Seigneur Etienne, Extraordinary
[According to my regional Herald, since I have not yet taken the PE 
exam and am not in any office (ordinary or extraordinary), he will 
refer to me as a plain extraordinary (or was that pain extraordinary) 
until I take the exam and can place "Pursuivant" in front of it. 
Kind of looks impressive even if it only means that I haven't 
bothered to take the exam yet.]
