Ingryd

Ingryd is a given name, primarily used as a feminine name. It is a variant spelling of the name Ingrid, a Scandinavian name derived from the Old Norse name Ingfríðr. Ingfríðr is composed of two elements: Ing, the name of an Old Norse god associated with fertility and peace, and fríðr, meaning "beautiful," "beloved," or "fair." Therefore, the name Ingryd, like Ingrid, generally carries the meaning of "Ing's beauty" or "beautiful Ing."

The name Ingryd, while less common than Ingrid, maintains the same etymological roots and cultural associations. Individuals named Ingryd may be found within Scandinavian communities and among those who appreciate Scandinavian names. The variations in spelling are often influenced by regional preferences or simply personal choice.
