Matelda is a rare feminine name with medieval roots, derived from the Germanic elements 'maht' meaning 'might, strength' and 'hild' meaning 'battle.' Most famously associated with Matilda of Tuscany, a powerful medieval Italian noblewoman, the name appears in Dante's 'Divine Comedy' as a guide in Purgatory. Matelda represents a more distinctive variant of the more common Matilda, offering the same historical gravitas with a unique flair. While uncommon in modern usage, Matelda appeals to parents seeking a name with historical depth and feminine strength. The name carries an elegant, old-world charm while remaining pronounceable and accessible.
