Oh, cool. Neat list, thanks for posting it.
And double cool: A real Meiler.

Where have you seen a "non-real" Meiler?

Just ran across the name (also spelled Meilyr) on a list of Welsh names. I've never seen it referring to a particular real person before. I don't always trust the validity of name lists, so it's nice to have a confirmation that it has been in use.
