Meaning & Origin of the name Adalind

Adalind is a beautiful and strong feminine name of clear Germanic origin. It is a compound name, combining two potent elements: "adal," meaning "noble," and "lind," which can mean "tender," "soft," or sometimes refer to a "linden tree" or "serpent" (in older contexts, often symbolizing wisdom).
