Opi Boswell.
Wanselo, or Anselo. I was once of the opinion that this name was
originally Lancelot, but as Mr. Borrow has found Wentzlow, _i.e._,
Wenceslas, in England, the latter is probably the original. I have found
it changed to Onslow, as the name painted on a Romany van in Aberystwith,
but it was pronounced Anselo.
Pastor-rumis.
Spico.
Jineral, _i.e._, General Cooper.
Horferus and Horfer. Either Arthur or Orpheus. His name was then
changed to Wacker-doll, and finally settled into Wacker.
Plato or Platos Buckland.
Wine-Vinegar Cooper. The original name of the child bearing this
extraordinary name was Owen. He died soon after birth, and was in
consequence always spoken of as Wine-Vinegar,--Wine for the joy which his
parents had at his birth, and Vinegar to signify their grief at his loss.
Gilderoy Buckland. Silvanus Boswell.
Lancelot Cooper. Sylvester, Vester, Wester, Westarus and 'Starus.
Oscar Buckland.
Dimiti Buckland. Liberty.
Piramus Boswell. Goliath.
Reconcile. Octavius.
Justerinus. Render Smith.
Faunio.
Shek-esu. I am assured on good authority that a gypsy had a child
baptized by this name.
Artaros. Sacki.
Culvato (Claude). Spysell.
Divervus. Spico.
Lasho, _i.e._, Louis.
Vesuvius. I do not know whether any child was actually called by this
burning cognomen, but I remember that a gypsy, hearing two gentlemen
talking about Mount Vesuvius, was greatly impressed by the name, and
consulted with them as to the propriety of giving it to his little boy.
Wisdom. Loverin.
Inverto. Mantis.
Studaveres Lovel. Happy Boswell.
