Meaning & History
In the Saga of Ragnar Lothbrók, his second wife Áslaug changes her name to Randalín when she goes to avenge the lives of her stepsons.Her name is of uncertain origin and meaning. One theory tries to connect her name to Old Norse rǫnd "shield" and hlín which is both the Old Norse word for "protection" and a poetic term for "woman".
