US Popularity:26954
Origin:German
Meaning:Spear ruler
Although this name's meaning of "spear-ruler" should be reason enough, you'll be happy to hear that Jeraldine has plenty to say. This girl's name is a respelling of classic Geraldine, which derives from Old German. During the 16th century, Irish-born poet Henry Howard popularized his words, "The Geraldine," referring to a character's family clan. His sonnet captured the hearts of many and inspired a revival during the 20th century as well. Jeraldine is a lovely choice for those seeking a name with vintage vibes and sophistication. However, you can expect your little warrior to live up to its fiery meaning, too, particularly during baby gym time.
