Koldo Fernandez = Louis (!)
I've been exposed to Basque my whole life (although not much), and still I didn't know Koldo was Basque for "Louis" until some years ago. And yet, I only made the connection to Clodoveo, Chlodovechus a couple of weeks ago. So his full name means Louis son of Ferdinand, or Famous-warrior son of Peace-daring.

Oookay. Now I'm totally stretching it:

Sørensen = Lakecleanlate

Sø = Lake
ren = clean
sen = late

:p

But you can't really pronounche that...
