Raghnailt is a feminine Irish name of Norse origin, being the Gaelic form of Ragnhild or Ragnhildr. The original Norse name combines 'regin' (counsel, gods) and 'hildr' (battle), creating a powerful meaning of 'battle adviser' or 'goddess of battle.' This distinctive name reflects Ireland's Viking heritage and the cultural exchange between Norse and Gaelic peoples during the medieval period. While relatively rare even in Ireland today, Raghnailt appears in historical Irish texts and genealogies of important medieval families. The name carries strong associations with wisdom, strength, and leadership. For modern parents, Raghnailt offers a deeply historical choice with powerful symbolism, though its unusual spelling and pronunciation may present practical challenges outside of Irish-speaking communities.
