Name Root:
*þeudō *rīkijaz > ÞIUDREIKS > Theodorich
Meaning:*
This name derives from Old High German “Theodorich,” composed of two elements: “*þeudō” (a people, a nation) plus “*rīkijaz” (kingly, royal, noble, mighty, distinguished, powerful, rich). In turn, the name means “a person that is distinguished and is full of strength.” Latin: Theodericus; Greek: Theodórikos (Θευδέριχος); Old English: Þēodrīc; Old Norse: Þjōðrēkr, Þīðrēkr. Theoderic the Great was king of the Ostrogoths, Italy’s ruler, regent of the Visigoths, and a governor of the Eastern Roman Empire. His Gothic name Þiudareiks translates into “people-king” or “ruler of the people.” A son of King Theodemir, an Amali nobleman, Theoderic was born in Pannonia after his people had defeated the Huns at the Battle of Nedao. Growing up as a hostage in Constantinople, Theoderic received a privileged education and succeeded his father as the Pannonian Ostrogoths leader in 471 AD.
