Sources

Carver: Balle (A)
Style group: Pr3
Notes: Stille (1999b:43f) läser (þ)-...a istället för (þ)...a och -el ...s istället för -el... ...s, det senare tolkas "sel hans". Andra namnet kan enligt Stille möjligen vara Ingivaldr (jämför NRL, s. 136 som för upp det under Ingi-) och lakunen i slutet utgår.
