I love the books of the Grail Quest series, but I got a little ahead of myself before I realized there were more.  I first found “1356” on the shelves at my public library and then read “The Archers Tale” (yes I am an American).  I am going to try to get them all in order from here on out  (Confession, I have already started another out of order in the Last Kingdom series)

My question is about the name , Will Skeat..’ I have already read another comment that he was not a real person.  However, there was a 19th century English etymologist named Walter William Skeat.  I was wondering if that may have been where you got the name.
