Re: name Randi
in reply to a message by Randi Menssen
Hei Randi!
Yes, Randi is a "modern" name in Norway (it was most popular between 1930 and 1950), but it derives from the Old Norse name Ragnfrid. The form Randi originate in dialectal variants of Ragnfrid:
Ragnfrid
Ragnrid
Ragndid
Ragndi
Randi
The Norwegian pronunciation of the name is run-dee (stress on the first syllable).
