I brought home a kitten a couple years ago, I had no idea what to call her. A few days later (five I think) I woke up in the middle of the night with the name (it was actually "Sigi") "SIGRID!" In my head so I called it out on a whim, and she came running to me from across the house at nine weeks old. She is sitting with me as I write this two years later, Sigrid is her name I call her Sigi it stuck.Seems like all my critters get named in ancient mostly dead languages, I may have a problem (whether it's the names or the animals is yet to be determined. I need to stop bringing home horses though for sure, their names are Tollak (the big horse) Arabian/quarter horse, Tyr (the miniature horse) and Sindri (the kitten/hell devil)
I love the names Sigrid and Ingrid. They seem like sisters.

Sigrid is my name and I absolutely love it. With the name meaning 'victory' and 'beautiful', there is no stronger name you could give a little girl (or boy). Sigrid wasn't common among my peers growing up, but I like that it's unique but still heard of. My English speaking friends call me Siggy, which I love. Sigrid is commonly cited as a first name for strong, smart and independent women in Old Norse literature. Sigrid as a name makes me feel strong and unique and it also reflects my heritage. I am so grateful to my parents for deciding on Sigrid rather than Sarah, Emma or Jessica (not that those names are not beautiful too!)
Sigrid Agren is a French fashion model from Martinique, who rose to prominence during the Elite Model Look in 2006. Agren has a Swedish father, and a French mother, and grew up on Martinique. She entered the Elite Model Look in France as a teenager, and went on to the finals in Paris. She was the winner and therefore among the contestants chosen to move on to the finals in Shanghai. She lost to one of the other French finalists, Charlotte Di Calypso.
Well, other than "I like this name" I would like to add that when I was a little girl, my dad told me that Sigrid meant "sunset" or "sunrise". I guess I like those two better than the given meanings. Sorry.

How can "sunset" or "sunrise" be better meanings than "beautiful"?Oh, well. I love this name. I think it's very beautiful.
