OTHILIE. A
pet form of French Othilde
(q.v.), as Ottilie is for German
Otthild
(q.v.), meaning "famous battle maid." (What Is Your Name?,
Moody, 1863). The Czechs have Otilie.
It is not
quite clear whether Othilie, the Alsatian virgin of the seventh century,
who was said to have been born blind, but to have obtained sight at her
baptism, is a form of Odel, noble, or a diminutive of
Oda, or whether
she is Otthild, answering to our
Eadhild, one of the many sisters of
Æthelstane: and there is the same doubt with Odilo and
Odilon, the
masculines. (History of Christian Names, Yonge, 1884).
