We are also holding a competition to mark the launch: which is the strangest personal name you have come across in a medieval charter? The winner will be decided by a vote at the launch party. Any personal name in a medieval charter (500-1500 AD) can be suggested: please send your favourite name and the charter reference to Rachel Stone (rachel.stone@kcl.ac.uk) by Wednesday 10^th December. We will be announcing the results in a post on the blog (http://charlemagneseurope.ac.uk/blog/) after the launch. Please forward this e-mail on to anyone you think would be interested in attending or submitting a strange name for the competition. best wishes, Rachel Stone Dr Rachel Stone Postdoctoral Research Associate, 'The Making of Charlemagne's Europe, 768-814'.
