Name Root:
*hildiz *gardaz > Hildegard / Hildigardis
Meaning:*
This name derives from the Old High German “Hildegard / Hildigardis,” composed of two elements: “*hildiz” (battle, fight) plus “*gardaz” (court, yard, enclosure, garden, protection, refuge). Saint Hildegard of Bingen was a German writer, composer, philosopher, Christian mystic, Benedictine abbess, visionary, and polymath. Elected a magistra by her fellow nuns in 1136, she founded the monasteries of Rupertsberg in 1150 and Eibingen in 1165. One of her works as a composer, the Ordo Virtutum, is an early example of liturgical drama and arguably the oldest surviving morality play.
