I've gone through the list of named nobles we know of of the Byzantine Empire between the tenth and fifteenth centuries, to find out surnames and frequencies of first names. I thought I'd share the results here, as something that should be quite useful for writers of Byzantine TLs.
The thing that strikes me most is the conservatism when it comes to female names!
