Category talk:Surnames of Frisian origin

Only westfrisian surnames are considered / east-frisian and north-frisian surnames are missing
The westfrisian surnames are well documented, i did a research on allefriezen.nl / a website for historical research and i found among the west-frisians many more genuine frisian surnames. The surnames in the article are only mentioning the west-frisian kind of way how frisian surnames were given (most by the name of the father).

The Westfrisians may add a +ma to the name of the father, it does not matter if the original frisian alphabet only contained 21 letters, mostly priests and bishops who were christianizing the Frisians used the latin set of letters (IJ = Y, like Ijlse / Ylse female name = Ilse) and +xtra +stra to a place were one was born, also de Vries (V did not exist in the 21 letter Frisian alphabet)

Westfrisian Surnames: +Sma +Ma +Xtra +Stra (van de Meer = from the sea / van Zuiden = from the south; maybe if fathers name was not known)

Eastfrisian Surnames: +Inga +Ommen or simply +(m)Men (instead of +ma = Mann/Man)

Northfrisian Surnames: +S +Sen

Examples:

Westfrisian Surnames: Douma, Terpstra etc. also van Zuiden and van de Meer (i guess it was when the father was not know by name)

Eastfrisian Surnames: Do not really exist at that great scale that i have an example for but it is nowadays more like North-Frisian

Northfrisian Surnames: Petersen, Peters, etc.

The Eastfrisian Surnames did not make it well through history, note that not all frisians do have the name +van de / +ma /+sma /+stra this is only the west-frisian style of how the male names of their fathers were translated into a surname, +ma has its origin of "Mann" ("man").

It would be beautiful if all frisian surnames were considered in this article. As sources are rare, i have had to do research in numerous forums, in various languages and some old antique books. But the research on this is very rare and not every information can be sourced in book form as we Frisians are a folk lower than around <1 Million people, and were devided through history in 3 parts, 1 part of Germany, 1 part of the Netherlands and 1 part of Denmark.

As i do not want to edit this article with the frisian surnames, i am just asking for help to differentiate the Surnames in clusters as i am a novice to Wikipedia. Nearly every Frisian (95%) have names after a male grandgrandgrand...-father if you look for frisian male names you may find the source, sometimes if the father was not known or if the boy had exactly the name of the father (very common in Frisia in history, the name of the mother also has to be took in consideration).

I did a lot of private research on this topic on allefriezen.nl (provided with data of birth and church registers from Friesland provided by Tresoar the Westfrees Archiiev) and i would be glad to provide my results for a better understanding, because now East- and North-Frisians are excluded from the Frisians what cannot be, even with simple research...
