I'm not sure if this is going to be really helpful, but...<br>
<br>
1.- For the Germanic names present in High Middle ages in Galicia (NW<br>
Spain) - these names, of Eastern Suevi origin, are mostly common to East<br>
/ Danubian Germans – initially it appears that only *harji-<br>
(*harjiz) is known:<br>
<br>
Argibadus (and modern place name Arxibai) < *Harjibadwaz (?)<br>
<br>
Argifredus (and modern place name Alxofreo) < *Harjifriþuz<br>
<br>
Argifreda < *Harjifriþô<br>
<br>
Argefonsus < * Harjifunsaz<br>
<br>
Argivastro < *Harjigastiz<br>
<br>
Argilo f. < *Harjilôn<br>
<br>
Argileuva f. < *Harjileubô<br>
<br>
Argimirus (and modern place name Arxemil) < *Harjimêraz<br>
<br>
Argemondus (and modern place name Arximonde) < *Harjimunduz<br>
<br>
Argeridus < *Harjirêdaz<br>
<br>
(initial h- in Germanic names didn't left any trace in toponymy,<br>
eiþer) etc... But, don't ask me why, there is no **Argiulfus, bur a<br>
very common Ariulfus / Ariulfus which have originated the place names<br>
and Surnames: Arulfe, Arufe (from latinized genitive Arulfi). There were<br>
also an Ariamiro (Suevi, king, died c. 570), and the names Arias 'Lord'<br>
and its superlative Ariastre ( < *Arjaz + -ist-, cf. V. Orel, A HANDBOOK<br>
OF GERMANIC ETYMOLOGY. Brill. 2003 s.v. *arjaz).<br>
<br>
2.- Gunþj is probably OK, or maybe gunþjô (at least judging<br>
from this side of the bay of Biscay):<br>
<br>
Siseguntia (c 580, a Suevi queen), Alaguntia, Astragundia, Ebragundia,<br>
Ermegundia, Fradegundia, Leodegundia, Menegundia, Teodegundia... but<br>
also Aragunti, Bergundi.<br>
<br>
3.- Vladimir Orel gives *drûdaz m 'friend, beloved'. The feminine<br>
*drûdjô is also common in Galician Germanic composite names:<br>
Alatrudia, Aniedrudia, Dagadrudia, Entrudi, Ermedrudia, Guntedrudia,<br>
Penedruia, Qualatrudia, Recedrudi, Senatrudia.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>

compounding nouns ($389) the -a- remains in short -ja stems but<br>
disappears in the long. So we get niujasatiþs and aglaitiwaurdei. So<br>
I would expect to see Harja- as harjis is has short stem syllable, but<br>
I'm aware of an attested Hariwulfs mentioned in Lehmenn's Etymological<br>
Dictionary which I don't have on me right now. Does anyone know whether<br>
it would be 'Harja-' or 'Hari-'?<br>

'-þryþ'. From the information Bosworth-Toller gives, it looks like<br>
an i-stem. Should it be '-þruþs' in Gothic? I can't find the<br>
proto-germanic form, but would it maybe be '-þrunþs'?<br>
