The female names of Maud, Matilda, and Mahaut were used interchangeably in the Middle Ages.--Jeanne Boleyn (talk) 07:31, 18 December 2010 (UTC)Reply
Thanks for undoing my edit. By the time I realised that I had made a mistake with the edit (that Matilda and Maud were the same person), and went back to undo it, you had already undone it for me. Thanks again.Selkcerf0142 (talk) 20:22, 18 December 2010 (UTC)Reply
No problem. At first glance it does appear that Maud and Matilda are separate names when in fact, they were the same in the medieval period. Isabelle and Elizabeth were also used interchangeably, same with Joan/Joanna-later being replaced in the 16th century with Jane. There were also Eleanor/Alianore, Hawise/Avise, Agnes/Anne, Gille/Egidia.--Jeanne Boleyn (talk) 08:19, 19 December 2010 (UTC)Reply
