Thanks, but its sad reputation is widely known. The births were new to me though.

Not totally unrelated, if you meet a WW you may learn something so long as you exercise caution.

Well, I have resorted to Gaeilc word lists, and my best combination of B and N that mean W and W is White Weasel.
I have other less plausible combinations for Woman

Afraid not, go back to your earlier line of thought. I'll think up another clue after dinner, just back from getting wet on Gleouraich et al.
