Enjorrant

This name derives from Old High German “Engilram,” composed of two elements: “Ingwaz / Yngvi” (Old Norse and Germanic god) plus “*hrabnaz > raban” (raven). Yngvi “Proto-Germanic (Ingwaz)” is an essential mythological Germanic figure which appears to have been the older name for the god Freyr. Freyr is one of the most important gods of Old-Norse paganism sometimes referred to as Yngvi-Freyr, (God of beauty and fertility). 1) Enguerrand I (~1042–1116) was the Lord of Coucy from 1086 to 1116. Enguerrand was a man of many scandals. With the help of the Bishop of Laon, he divorced his first wife, Adèle de Marle, for adultery. 2) Enguerrand II, known as of La Fère or of Marle, was a French nobleman. 3) Enguerrand IV (~1236–1311) was the younger brother and successor of Raoul II, Lord of Coucy, serving as the powerful Sire de Coucy from his brother’s death in 1250 until his own in 1311.
