I love that your place names are actually pretty straightforward and descriptive -- as long as you know your linguistics and your history!
The Danish influences were a surprise!
(I haven't charted my own DNA, and I'm unlikely to do so anytime soon -- for sooo many reasons -- but based on name etymology and a couple of other very minor details, I have a theory that I have a teeny, tiny bit of Norman ancestry. Whee, I'm a pestilence!! :)
