Etymology of the name HRUODGAR.
Meaning of the baby name HRUODGAR.

  

HRUODGAR.  Old German name meaning "famous spear," from Teutonic hruod "fame, praise," and gar "spear."  Also see Rüdiger and Hruodgeir.

    There seems to have been a veritable Hruodgar living in the time of Pepin, who married a lady whose father's name was Hector, whence it was taken for granted that she descended from Hector of Troy.  Therefore the House of Este bore the white eagle in their coat of arms, because it was said he of Troy had a shield azure with a silver eagle! (History of Christian Names, Yonge, 1884).
