Was there ever another word list? #680

So I made a brain/paper wallet in 2018/2019 and wrote down the 24 words; actually 25, but one might be a password/marker. I don't remember the tool I used back then, neither did I write it down. I know, stupid younger me!

Anyway, I'm currently researching how to get to a functioning wallet. Of course I started with this converter. Very quickly I start sweating when it starts telling me some of the words are not in the word list.

I'll present a few of the offending ones so that people have something to work with:

Searching online, I find all of them in the Monero project, but it was definitely a BTC tool.

So, given the time frame and some words, can anybody point me in the right direction? I'm fairly certain is was not some random thing I ran back then, but something well-known, like www.bitaddress.org.

Electrum had its own wordlist. But ounce is not on it.
