Annabelle-

Lance and I are planning on going ... Abbey and our friends who were at
Beltane are coming also.  We may also be bringing another newbie couple!
What a fun event to start people out at!!  I think we are going to hotel
it but not sure yet.

We're planning on going to Steppes Warlord.
 
Is anyone interested in possibly getting a group camp set up?

Oh it happened, but was extremely rare and apparently there is no known 
example before 1200 AD.
One I found was Bonner, which was Matronymic, but also was very late 
period and had Scottish influence. In fact, I even found a letter of 
SCA heraldic commentary wherein someone tried "daughter of 
Fhionnaghula" and it bounced.
Google Irish Matronymics and you should see plenty of stuff.
