fullgerður

Fulgerður is a given name of Old Norse origin. The name is composed of two elements: "full-" meaning "full" or "complete," and "-gerður," which translates to "enclosed" or "protected." Therefore, the name can be interpreted as "fully protected" or "completely enclosed." This name is traditionally feminine.

While not as common as some other Norse names, Fulgerður appears in historical records and sagas. Its usage is primarily associated with historical periods in Iceland and other Scandinavian regions. The name carries a sense of strength and security due to its etymological roots. In modern times, the name Fulgerður is rare but still exists, often passed down through families with a connection to their ancestral heritage. Its presence in literature and historical accounts contributes to its cultural significance. The pronunciation and spelling may vary slightly across different dialects and historical periods.
