RANDULF. The
same as Anglo-Saxon Randolf (q.v.),
a form of old German Randwulf
(q.v.), meaning "shield wolf."
Also see Randolph. (A Compendious Anglo-Saxon and
English Dictionary,
Bosworth,
1901).
RANDULF,
called Le Meschin, Earl of Chester (d. 1129?), was the son and heir of
Randulf, called "de Brichessart" (from Briquessart, his family
seat), hereditary vicomte of the Bessin in Normandy, by Maud, sister of
Hugh "of Avranches," earl of Chester. He is chiefly
remarkable for the confusion that has prevailed as to his name, his
titles, and his wife. Though he is very generally termed "de
Meschines" (de Micenis), he bore the name "Meschin"
only... (Dictionary of National Biography, v.16,
1909)
