ÓLÁFR. Old
Norse name, variously rendered "forefather's relic," "relic of the gods,"
"relic of the Anses." Also spelled Áláfr.
The Old Saxon form is Anláf
(q.v.). Amhlabh
is an Irish form.
... The same persons whom
England called Anlaff, and Ireland Amlaidh, were, in the North, Alafr,
or Olafr, according to the custom of pronouncing the diphthong a like an
o, and then so spelling it, e.g., Aasbiorn, Osbiorn... (History
of Christian Names, Yonge, 1884)
