Both this and the Pict article are worth studying.
There also might be more listings in the other Irish annals but
I think we have enough to pass the name.  Something remarkable
considering that turbulent time in English history.

Last sentance.
"Note that the infamous -wyn/-wen distinction doesn't exist yet at this
point; 
the element is spelled the same whether it appears in a woman's name 
Cuniovenda or in a man's name Barrivendos."

It appears this is the same name but don't know why it is spelled
different.

Enough of this til after Coronation
