More Old German names
Emory
“An English variant of Emery, from the Old High German Amalric, a compound of amal (a reference to the powerful Amal dynasty of the Visigoths, possibly meaning "vigour" or "work") and ric, "power" or "rule." The name was introduced to England by the Normans. Emory is the primarily American spelling, and the name is associated with Emory University in Atlanta, founded in 1836, giving it an additional register of Southern academic prestige.”
Derek
“An English form of Theodoric, from the Old High German Þeudarīks, a compound of þeud ("people," "folk") and rīks ("king" or "ruler"), meaning "ruler of the people." Theodoric was the name of the great Ostrogothic king who ruled Italy from 493 to 526 AD. The name reached England via Flanders in the medieval period as Dirk or Derrick, with Derek becoming the established English form. It was widely popular in the mid-20th century in Britain.”
Karlie
“A modern variant of Carlie or Carly, itself a diminutive of Carla or Carol, both feminine forms of Charles. Charles derives from the Old High German Karl, meaning "free man" or "man." The spelling with K reflects a Scandinavian influence (Karl) and became fashionable in the United States in the late 20th century as a more distinctive alternative to Carly.”
Otis
“An English surname-turned-given-name, derived from the medieval given name Ode or Oto, itself from the Old High German Odo or Otto, meaning "wealth" or "fortune." The name was brought to England by Normans after 1066. In America it gained traction as a given name in the 19th century, partly boosted by the fame of inventor Elisha Otis, who revolutionised vertical transport with the safety elevator.”
Hendrik
“The Dutch and Low German form of Henry, from the Old High German Heimrich, a compound of heim ("home") and rīchi ("power" or "ruler"), meaning "ruler of the home" or "home ruler." Henry/Heinrich was one of the most widely used names among Germanic royalty throughout the medieval period. Hendrik is the distinctively Dutch spelling, common in the Netherlands and South Africa (where it was carried by Dutch settlers).”
Carol
“An English feminine form of Charles, via Carolina and Carolus, from the Old High German Karl, meaning "free man." Carol also intersects with the English word carol, a joyful song (from the Old French carole, a round dance with singing, possibly from the Latin choraula, a flute player accompanying a chorus). The given name peaked as a feminine name in the English-speaking world in the 1940s–1960s. Historically it was also used as a masculine name in Romania (Carol I, Carol II).”
