Of debated origin and meaning, Isolde might be derived from the Old High German Isold, a compound name composed of the elements is (ice) and wal-tan (to rule): hence, "ruler of the ice." Alternatively, it could be a variant of the Welsh Esyllt (beautiful, fair). The name is borne in medieval legend by an Irish princess who was betrothed to King Mark of Cornwall. Through a magic potion, she became the beloved of Tristram, who was married to another Isolde |
