[Opinions] Re: Fressenda
in reply to a message by Wordsmith
A little research suggests it's Ancient Germanic in origin and the meaning is something along the lines of 'strong peace' - other forms were Fredesende / Fredesendis. The sound doesn't appeal to me particularly, but it's an interesting find.

Yes, I read that it's related to Frideswide (one of my long-time favorites), which surprised me.
Frideswide is also a long time favorite, but I like Fressenda even more.
