Ahrend
Arnold is a masculine German, Dutch and English given name. It is composed of the Germanic elements ''arn'' "eagle" and ''wald'' "power, brightness". The name was first recorded in Francia from about the 7th century, at first often conflated with the name ''Arnulf'', as in the name of bishop Arnulf of Metz, also recorded as ''Arnoald''. ''Arnulf'' appears to be the older name (with cognates in Anglo-Saxon and Old Norse), and German (Frankish) ''Arnold'' may have originally arisen in c. the 7th century as a corruption of ''Arnulf'', possibly by conflation of similar names such as ''Hari-wald'', ''Arn-hald'', etc. The name is attested with some frequency in Medieval Germany during the 8th to 11th centuries, as ''Arnold, Arnalt, Arnald, Arnolt''. It was occasionally spelled ''Harnold, Harnald'', and the name may have been conflated with an independent formation containing ''hari-'' "host, army". Its etymology ceased to be evident from an early time, and it was sometimes folk-etymol ...
