This name derives from the Proto-Norse “HariwolfaR,” composed of two Ancient Germanic elements: “*harjaz” (army, army leader, commander, warrior) plus “*-wulfaz” (wolf). In turn, the name means “The commander of the wolves, the one who fights like a wolf.” Saint Hariolf (~730–815) and his brother Erlolf were the founders of the Benedictine abbey Ellwangen around 764. They came from a Bajuwarisch-Alemannic noble family.
