Well, The Dark is Rising, which is technically kids' fantasy, springs to mind, and then there's Marion Zimmer Bradley as referenced by both yourself and Erin. Mostly, see Erin's comment for my feelings on this. Celtic inspired naming conventions feel to me like the single most banal choice in fantasy fiction - moreso even than Germanic - so I found it comical that this was being cited in the comments (by multiple people, not just Kerr) as in some way 'different' or original - and I really don't care how long she's been doing it. That's all.
