ArchivesA variant of Helga (female) or Helge (male)
in reply to a message by parkranger
This was my guess but I checked at http://www.nordicnames.de/flick_h/flick_h.html
Old Norse "heilagr" = holy
"You sought a flower and found a fruit. You sought a spring and found a sea. You sought a woman and found a soul. You are disappointed."
"It does not become me to make myself smaller than I am." (Edith Södergran 1891-1923)

the name that I know her by is Hege and just that. What does your quote mean? Thanks for you help.

Hege is a variant of Helga, is what Ylva is trying to say. It's a simplified/altered form but it has the same meaning.
Besides, Hege is in the database (click the link) - you could have looked it up yourself!
