Desiderata (fl. 771), was a Queen consort of the Franks. She was one of four daughters of Desiderius, King of the Lombards, and his wife Ansa, Queen of the Lombards. She was married to Charlemagne in 770, in order for him to create a bond between Francia and the Kingdom of the Lombards and attempt to isolate his brother Carloman I who ruled over the central territories of Francia. The marriage lasted just one year and there are no known children from the marriage.
'Desiderata' is the name of a well-known poem by Max Ehrmann.

Pretty, but a lot to say. I would pronounce it Dess-Ee-Dear-At-Uh.

I think it would make a great name for a girl in a book. Desi for short maybe.

No comments? Surprising. It's quite pretty despite the lengthy-ness of the name, which sadly makes it lose its luster. But it's still a nice name in my opinion.
