Finding general data on names from a particular culture, but I mean, it's all interesting to me.

(Context: My particular area of interest is 14th-15th century Bohemia, and there's not a ton of collected data on names for that time/place, particularly bynames. I've seen a lot of "oh, they used locatives and patronymics/metronymics," but not a lot of sources cited, that I've found, and I'd love to compile a larger body of data that I and others can draw from.)
