Raymond K
Raymond is a male given name. It was borrowed into English from French (older French spellings were Reimund and Raimund (other), Raimund, whereas the modern English and French spellings are identical). It originated as the Germanic languages, Germanic ᚱᚨᚷᛁᚾᛗᚢᚾᛞ (''Raginmund'') or ᚱᛖᚷᛁᚾᛗᚢᚾᛞ (''Reginmund''). ''Ragin'' (Gothic language, Gothic) and ''regin'' (Old German) meant "counsel". The Old High German ''mund'' originally meant "hand", but came to mean "protection". This etymology suggests that the name originated in the Early Middle Ages, possibly from Latin. Alternatively, the name can also be derived from Germanic Hraidmund, the first element being ''Hraid'', possibly meaning "fame" (compare ''Hrod'', found in names such as Robert, Roderick, Rudolph (name), Rudolph, Roland (name), Roland, Rodney (name), Rodney and Roger) and ''mund'' meaning "protector". Despite the German and French origins of the English name, some of its earl ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |
