Origin of the name SIGURD.
Etymology of the name SIGURD.
Meaning of the baby name SIGURD.

  

SIGURD.  Scandinavian.  The same as Old Norse Sigvarðr (q.v.), meaning "conquering guard."

    Sig, or siga, means, in all Teutonic tongues, conquest; and the Victor seems to have been a very old epithet for the Divinity.  St. Augustin speaks of a Gothic exclamation Sihora armen, which he translates as Κύρεε ἐλεήσυν, and the first word of which evidently answers to Ceadmon's epithets for the Almighty, Sigorafrea, Sigoragod, Sigoracyning... (History of Christian Names, Yonge, 1884)
