hroth
Hroth is a term used in multiple contexts, spanning historical onomastics and modern popular culture. In the study of Germanic names, Hroth is linked to the Old Norse hróðr or Old English hrōð, elements meaning fame or glory. It appears as a component in compound given names in medieval sources, such as Hróðgeirr or Hrōðmund, reflecting a tradition of valor and renown in personal naming. As a standalone given name, Hroth has largely fallen out of common use in contemporary times, but its linguistic legacy persists in longer names and in discussions of early medieval onomastics.
