Fridric
Fridric is a masculine given name used in some Germanic-language contexts as a rare variant of Friedrich. The form is derived from older Germanic elements meaning peace and ruler, commonly understood as "peaceful ruler." The exact etymology reflects a fusion of frith or frid (peace) with ric (ruler, power). Spelling variations are common across Europe, including Fridrich (German), Friedrich (the standard German form), Frédéric (French), Frederik (Dutch, Danish, Norwegian), and Fridrik (Icelandic and some Scandinavian forms). The specific variant Fridric is uncommon today and tends to appear in older records, genealogical databases, or as a clerical spelling variant.
