So, a common misconception of the name Ingrid is that it means "Ing's beauty", or "Ing is beautiful" and that Ing is nothing, however, that's not the case. Ing was a Nordic godess of an unnkown origin, which I think contributes even further to the beauty of the name. The definition isn't silly in any way.And, NO, it should NOT be seen as an English name just because it is used in English speaking countries. That is not how it works, thank you very much.
I've heard that Ingrid means "the daughter of the hero" :)
I've heard that the name Ingrid means "hero's daughter". I can't gaurantee that I'm right though.
