*aþalaz *berganą / *burgz > ADALBURG / ÆTHELBURH
Meaning:*
This name derives from the Old High German name “Adalburg”, composed of two elements: “*aþalaz” (noble, nobleman, aristocratic, eminent, glorious, excellent) plus “*berganą / *burgz” (to take care, to preserve, to protect, to save, to help, to rescue / fortification, stronghold, fortified city, castle). St. Ethelburga’s Bishopsgate is a Church of England church in the City of London, located on Bishopsgate near Liverpool Street station. In July 1993, an IRA bomb severely damaged the Church, and once the building was rebuilt and restored, it re-opened as a Centre for Reconciliation and Peace. Æthelburh was an early Anglo-Saxon queen consort of Northumbria, the second wife of King Edwin. As she was a Christian from Kent, their marriage triggered the initial phase of the conversion of the pagan north of England to Christianity.
