• Per OSCAR, Rune - Appears as the name of Rune Bery, a female child christened on 2 June, 1566, at Walcott in Norfolk (Batch #: C040841).

Odinsson

• Odinsson: the "Diplomatarium Norvegicum" (http://www.dokpro.uio.no/dipl_norv/diplom_field_eng.html) has an Odin Redulf sson in 1460 (document 240, https://www.dokpro.uio.no/perl/middelalder/diplom_vise_tekst_2016.prl?b=9212&s=n&str= ) and Nykolas Odin sson in 1468 (document 355, https://www.dokpro.uio.no/perl/middelalder/diplom_vise_tekst_2016.prl?b=8530&s=n&str= ).

Note: According to the May 2007 LoAR, under the name "Katrin Odinsdottir", Odin is registerable as patronymic because Odin is a name used by normal humans in late period Norwegian, hence this name is registerable as a 15th C Norwegian name.

Combination

• Old Norse names are generally considered to date until c. 1100, so Rune would be within 500 years of the attested dates for Odinsson.
