Period Forms:

Meles - female

  • Paul Johanson. 1925. "Wanem Tallinna Jaani haigemaja wakuraamat: 1435-1507" [The oldest Wackenbuch of the St. Johannes hospitals of Tallinn.] Tallinna linna arhiivi väljaanded vol. 4, part 2. - https://dspace.ut.ee/handle/10062/19173
    • This is a document recorded in a mixture of Middle Low German and Latin, listing debts and obligations. p. 25 in the volume, line 9 down, dated 1491 says: "It. Meles sin wyff betalt van deme xcj jar" [also (Latin: Item) Meles his wife paid them 91 (something)] As Meles is identified as "sin wyff" (Modern High German "sein Weib" English: "his wife") then it appears that Meles is a woman.

Meles - male

  • "Eestipäraseid isikunimesid" by Julius Mägiste, sn. Meeles
    • Meles van Leydema
    • Meles van Keykus
  • Mägiste doesn't date names, but does say where they're from, in this case "Urkb. I 11 265" which is volume 11, p.265 of "Liv- , Esth- und Curländisches Urkundenbuch." (at https://dspace.ut.ee/handle/10062/63444)
    • "Meles van Leydema is tho Toneyegell"
    • "Meles van Keykus is tho Tackever"
  • Both of these are from the same record, dated 1453. It looks like they're both men, simply because they're in a list of signatories that are men, but they're Estonian.
