Meaning & History
Old French name derived from the continental Germanic name Adelwidis, which was composed of Old High German adal meaning "noble, well-bred" and wit meaning "wide". Alternatively the second element could be derived from Old Saxon widu, wido or Old High German witu meaning "wood".It is often difficult to distinguish forms of this name from forms of Alice and Eloise.
