the second one was answered as William the Conqueror a while back, I think. But what's 3-2? You won't get many kings' names that short.
Jno it's presumably the nickname which is so short, but I haven't come up with any so far.

I've got king edgar 1 for no 15. Please can you help me with no 1? Was his nickname given him because he wore a short coat?(3-1) the first part is the name of the king, the second, his nickname.
that was Henry II "Curtmantle". I have no idea how this translates into 3-1.
thanks jno I can fit that in perfectly.
