Edla
Edla Origin and Meaning
Edla is a feminine name with Germanic and Scandinavian origins. The name likely derives from the Old Germanic elements meaning 'noble' or 'precious.' In Norse history, Edla was the name of a concubine of King Olof Skötkonung of Sweden, giving the name some historical significance. Across Scandinavian countries, especially Sweden and Finland, Edla has maintained a quiet presence without becoming particularly common. The name carries a sense of ancient wisdom and strength in its simplicity. Edla's brief, two-syllable structure gives it an accessible sound while still feeling distinctive. Its rarity in English-speaking countries makes it an uncommon choice with authentic Nordic roots.
