Origin:
germanic
Name Root:
*-WULFAZ *rīkijaz > WULFRIC
Meaning:*
This name derives from two Ancient Germanic elements “*-wulfaz” (wolf) plus “*rīkijaz” (kingly, royal, noble, mighty, distinguished, powerful, rich). In turn, the name means “powerful wolf or the power of the wolf.” The name later has been linked to Ulric, which, however, it has a different origin. 1) Wulfric († ~1004), called Wulfric Spot or Spott, was an Anglo-Saxon nobleman. His will is an important document from the reign of King Æthelred the Unready. Wulfric was a patron of the Burton Abbey, around which the modern town of Burton on Trent later grew up, and may have refounded the Benedictine monastery there. 2) Saint Wulfric († 1154) was an anchorite and miracle worker in Wiltshire and Somerset, England, frequently visited by King Stephen. His feast day is February 20.
