female given name JANE:-
It is the English form of the Old French name Jehanne, which was an old feminine form of the male name Johannes or Ioannes (also the source of the English name JOHN),
I'm sorry? I apologise, but I thought I was clear about the fact that Jane was not her real name, and I am seeking clarity on her father, not her alias.
I have a couple of illigitimate children in my tree. A couple were not allowed to marry until two years after the birth of their daughter who they named "Williamina" after father William. This illustrates why I followed your lead and showed there is usually a feminine name to every male name.
The other child was given the full name of the father (full name = feminised given name plus surname plus mother's surname) who sailed away to war before parents could arrange to be married.
