Θευδέριχος
Ancient Greek
Alternative forms
- Θεοδώριχος (Theodṓrikhos)
Etymology
Via Late Latin Theodericus from a Germanic origin, likely via Gothic *𐌸𐌹𐌿𐌳𐌰𐍂𐌴𐌹𐌺𐍃 (*þiudareiks) from Proto-Germanic *Þeudarīks, from *þeudō (“people”) + *rīks (“king”). Etymologically unrelated to Ancient Greek Θεόδωρος (Theódōros, “Theodore”, literally “gift of God”), although medieval conflation of the Germanic and Hellenic names may have given rise to Byzantine Greek Θεοδώριχος (Theodṓrikhos, “Theodoric”), Medieval Latin Theodōrīchus (“Theodoric”).
