This name means “battle of dark results.” It derives from the Ancient Germanic (Latinized) name “Griseldis,” composed of two elements: “*grēwaz,” meaning “grey, aged, very old man, sand” plus “*hildiz,” meaning “battle, fight.” This was the name of a patient wife in medieval tales by Boccaccio and Chaucer.
