Surname finder...

So this post is a response to finding out where 'Clune' came from in my surname. I have a double-barrelled surname 'd'Andilly-Clune'.... 'd'Andilly' is my mothers name which is traced back to France and King Louis the 15th. 'Clune' however, I didn't know much about.

I came across http://worldnames.publicprofiler.org/ which is just a university doing research on surnames, just provide your surname, email address and sex and you're given an idea of where your name came from and where in the world it is being used. How cool? So 'Clune' is Celtic and from Ireland. Interesting stuff...
