I would propose Kairls Marks (gen. Marksis).<br>
Since the final s is not a suffix it shouldn't change to Markis,<br>
and you're right that final -ss isn't very frequent at all.<br>
E.g. the pgmc word for salmon *lahsaz would've been lahss if final <br>
double s was allowed but this would change to lahs and the genitive <br>
would be lahsis.<br>

<br>
Yes this might've been what I was thinking about when refering to <br>
some baltic language.<br>
A masculine person's name would I propose end in masculine a-stem <br>
suffix -s in nominative and be declines as such.<br>
<br>
But should we use the gothic corresponding name for Vladimir or use <br>
the russian with a a-stem s attached to it?<br>
<br>
