Richeldis

Richeldis is a rare feminine given name occasionally given in reference to Richeldis de Faverches, a Saxon noblewoman who supposedly had a vision of the Virgin Mary that led her to establish a Marian shrine in 1061 in Walsingham, England in honor of Our Lady of Walsingham.[1]

The name Richeldis may be Old English or Norman in origin. One account claimed she was named in honor of Richardis, an Empress and ninth century saint. [2]

Richilde and its variants was the name of several other medieval noblewomen. Other similar names in use at the time included Richelde, Richilda, Richilde, Richildis and Rychelde.

gollark: Where?
gollark: - lack of TLS, while ALL is to be utterly secured- no extensibility- what if I want to send 1025 bytes
gollark: I don't like this.
