Is there a specific story behind this, Larry? For example, that of the young man you mention?

It occurred to me whether the word Roma might have anything to do with the English word "to roam"", meaning to travel. My dictionary gave it as of unbknown origin, but Middle English, which would probably make it a bit too early, since the Romany peole wouldn't have reached England at thta time.

But it seems a strange thing that if you write Roma as "roamer", it means precisely the same as "traveller".
