WILFRITH. Anglo-Saxon
name meaning "resolute peace," from Old English willa
"determined, resolute" also "will power," and frið
"peace." (A Compendious Anglo-Saxon and English
Dictionary, Bosworth, 1901). Also spelled Wilfrid,
and Wilfred.
Wil is
almost always a commencement. The Frank queen Bilichilde was, of
course, Willihilda, resolute battle. Our earnest but turbulent
Wilfrith, the Yorkshire bishop, hardly deserved to be called resolute
peace... (History of Christian Names, Yonge, 1884).
