I know that most of the residents of Storybrooke have names that have a connection to their Fairyland characters--

Mary-Margaret Blanchard = "Blanche" is French for "white."
Ruby = Red Riding Hood
Regina = Latin for "Queen"
Archie Hopper = Crickets "hop"

...etc. Now, look at the Mayor's full name: Regina Mills.

Didn't the story of Rumplestiltskin begin with a Miller's daughter?

Could Regina have been The Miller's Daughter before she was an Evil Queen? And would that mean that she's known Rumplestiltskin/Mr. Gold for far longer than we're aware right now?

I suppose it could work with the proper twist but at this point I agree: too much interconnection. And they are interconnections that don't add up to the relationships we have seen so far.

Yeah, the ages are crazy in this show. I can get behind magically transformed creatures not aging (or at least having longer than human lifespans) but it makes it difficult to figure out how everyone fits! I will say that having Rumpelstiltskin be around for decades (at least) making deals does work since it gives him a great deal of time to amass power and pile up favors.
