Very well done. Lots of name forms on here in both languages I've never heard of but they made sense. I never ever would have figured that Agnes and Inez were the same name if not for this quiz.

These quizzes are great, but seriously... Irmhild? Please just use normal names.

Fun quiz. A long-ago relative who was baptized Agnes adopted Inez as her name later in life. I thanked her (in spirit) for helping with that item here.

Good quiz, but the title on the main page was mis-leading. Some of these were definitely not English names (Genevieve, Irmhild, etc). Not that I mind for the quiz, the main-page people just got it wrong.

Saying each name in an over-the-top Spanish accent as I clicked them turned this quiz into a really fun experience.

Didn't even know some of these were words, let alone names, in English. Also, I 10 minutes seems way too long, to me. Maybe something like 7:00 would be better.

Being that my name is Blaise, why was I Paco in Spanish class, and not Blas? Damn you 6th grade Spanish teacher for your ignorance!

I have an aunt named Eulalia and she was born in Mexico, if anything, that's a Spanish name...we all call her "Lala", though. :P

Stella is not Estrella, is Estela (and it's my mother's name), first time in 28 years, I hear (or read) the names Águeda, Olalla, Imelda or Gualterio. Regarding Alejo, I always thought it was hte short form of Alejandro
