"elf power"Elfrida Origin and Meaning
The name Elfrida is a girl's name of English origin meaning "elf power".
The name of the mother of Aethelred the Unready was once common among the Anglo-Saxon nobility, and was briefly revived during the 19th century, only to be lost once again to history. However, with the recent revival of Frida and other clunky-cool vintage gems like Agatha, Matilda and Theodora, we think this ancient option could be worth a second look. And how cute would a baby Elfie be?
