Is this a real name Richildis
A freind of mine says she has heard of this name somewhere but cannot remember where she thinks its an old feminine form of Richard
i myself have never heard of it before has anyone else
She reads a lot so i myself think its possiblty a made up name and as she cant recall it exactly i may not have the correct spelling
Richildis
Sorry i dont have much information to help

yes, it is!Hi raindancing,Richildis is a latinized form of the Old German name Richhild (variations: Richild, Rikhild, Richilde). The meaning is Old German "rihhi" = mighty, rich + Old German "hiltja" = battle, fight.Regards, Satu
