Etheldred Benett (1776 – 1845) was an English geologist often credited with being the first female geologist, having devoted much of her life to collecting and studying fossils that she discovered in South West England. She worked closely with many principal geologists and her fossil collection, considered one of the largest at the time, played a part in the development of geology as a field of science.

The only place I've seen this name is in the novel "The Daisy Chain" by Charlotte Mary Yonge. Etheldred is a very good character, and I like the name because it is unique. The book was great too! :)
