- The Complete 'Silly Names List'
This list has been compiled solely from records held at Cornwall Record Office and has been collected together over the course of the last six years. The only qualification to appear on the list is the possession of a name which can be considered silly or unusual. We hope that some amusement is to be found from this little publication (and maybe a few ancestors).
