Ad genus: a declined form of cymed is only recorded in the Mercian field name cymedes halh (cf. Sweet 1885,431, 13/5), which literally means "cymed-rock, -hill, -slope, cymed-Felsen, -Anhöhe, -Abhang" (cf. Middendorff 1902,69, s.v. healh, who does not record cymedes halh.); this filedname can be compared to cymenes denu "carway valley, Kümmeltal" (cf. Middendorff 1902,39, s.v. denu.). Therefore it is not clear why BT, ClH, DOE without identify the genus as "n".
Cf. Cockayne (1961,II,375): "Cymed for Cymen? -n and -d being kindred dentals. Lb. I.xxxix. 2. Lye conjectured for chamaedrys, germander." Also cf. →arod for aron? BT, CH, s.v. presume a development from L CHAMAEDRYS (Gk χαμαϊδρυς).
