[Opinions] It is a classic Viking name
in reply to a message by IrishGirl(nsi)
Sigrid means "victory" + "beauty" (or victorious and beautiful)
Irish names have been very popular for a long time; it is time for Scandinavian names now ;)
I like Sigrid but I prefer the short form Siri. Both R and G are harsh sounds so Sigrid may sound harsh, but I find it rather ethnocentric to call it "horrible".
"You sought a flower and found a fruit. You sought a spring and found a sea. You sought a woman and found a soul. You are disappointed."
