Hildagarde

Derived from the Germanic elements hildiz and gardaz, Hildagarde is a feminine name invigorated with fortitude. Meaning “battle enclosure,” “battle protection,” or “battle refuge,” Hildagarde shines like a warrior helmet for the mighty tot ready to take on the world. A respelling of the more common Hildegarde, Hildagarde holds firm on its warm “a” sounds and adds a touch of individuality. Bonus points for the lovely nickname Hilda, which features throughout pop culture like the Netflix series Hilda and as Sabrina’s quirky aunt throughout the Sabrina the Teenage Witch franchise.
