I had read a comment made by you concerning not having an ample amount of Saxon names to use in your “Saxon Stories” of Uhtred. Here is one that I have not ran across in reading those books. “Cynric”. It is one of my oldest sons baptismal names. It is at least fifth century in usage in England. It was once a common baptism name. I have enjoyed your books about Uhtred. I have a degree in history and I have concentrated much on the study of Saxon England. Your books are wonderful. It reinforces my academic studies and I have learned a lot of other facts not included in academic studies about our Anglo Saxon ancestors. I wanted to throw that name out to you. “Cynric” a good strong Saxon same. May you keep writing your wonderful stories, as long as it is profitable; of course. Waes Hael, Timothy Hawkins
