Toponymy[edit]

Wondering about the toponymy of Tetney, seems to not have changed much being listed as Tatenai in Domesday. I wondered if there are any reliable sources which show a link to modern Swedish word "tät", see http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/tät with tätna describing somewhere dense, thick, crowded or impermeable. from O.N. þettr "watertight, close in texture, solid"^[1] which I think would describe the situation of a dry island in the marsh, with the -ey suffix meaning island, or perhaps promontory see List of generic forms in place names in the United Kingdom and Ireland. I think so far it's a little too much on the side of original research to add to article.Lacunae (talk) 20:18, 3 December 2012 (UTC) I should add that tät is pronounced just as the English would say tet.Lacunae (talk) 20:22, 3 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
