Personal Name
A personal name, full name or prosoponym (from Ancient Greek ''prósōpon'' – person, and ''onoma'' –name) is the set of names by which an individual person or animal is known. When taken together as a word-group, they all relate to that one individual. In many cultures, the term is synonymous with the ''birth name'' or ''legal name'' of the individual. In linguistic classification, personal names are studied within a specific onomastic discipline, called anthroponymy. In Western culture, nearly all individuals possess at least one ''given name'' (also known as a ''first name'', ''forename'', or ''Christian name''), together with a ''surname'' (also known as a ''last name'' or ''family name''). In the name "James Smith", for example, ''James'' is the first name and ''Smith'' is the surname. Surnames in the West generally indicate that the individual belongs to a family, a tribe, or a clan, although the exact relationships vary: they may be given at birth, taken upon adoption ...

Grimaldo De San Millán
Grimaldo de San Millán () or Grimaldo de Silos () was a Benedictine monk and hagiographer active in the decades on either side of 1100. Grimaldo was a monk of Santo Domingo de Silos and later San Millán de la Cogolla. Nothing is known of his life beyond what can be gleaned from his own works. He may have been one of the monks of San Millán who went into exile with Dominic of Silos around 1040 before the founding of San Domingo de Silos. Some historians have supposed that he was French. While at Silos, Grimaldo wrote a biography of Dominic of Silos in three books, the ''Vita sancti Dominici Exiliensis''. He wrote at the request of his abbot, Fortunio, Dominic's successor. It was originally composed in 1073–1076. It was revised between 1088 and the death of King Alfonso VI on 30 June 1109. Grimaldo was an eyewitness to much that he recounts. Sometime after 1095, Grimaldo retired from Silos to San Millán. In 1090, the relics of Saint Felix of Bilibio were moved from the castle ...
