          By 1173, someone with the family name of Merlin appears as a witness in a document issued at Lisbon...!

          I suppose it could be Geoffrey reaching for the Latin Merlinus.

          Yes, looks like a change by Geoffrey to avoid the unfortunate connotations that keeping the -d- would produce :)

          @caitlinrgreen Slightly off-topic but wasn't there a #viking #settlement somewhere in North #Spain ? What was the timeframe for that?

          @caitlinrgreen I think there was British Celtic migrations to North West of Spain.

          Maybe they were just local Celtic names which survived until medieval time?

          No, not likely given forms which show insular changes etc, unless we see as deriving from 6thC Britonia in NW Spain?
