Tidhelm

Tidhelm is an obscure Old English name, composed of the elements tid and helm.

• Tid – This element is derived from Old English tid, meaning "time," "season," "hour," or "tide." It could refer to a specific period of time or a more general sense of timeliness or good fortune.

• Helm – This element comes from Old English helm, meaning "helmet," "protection," or "covering." In personal names, it often carries a connotation of protector or guardian.

Therefore, the name Tidhelm can be interpreted as "time-protector," "protector of the hour," or perhaps more abstractly, "guardian of fortune" or "protector of good times." It is a relatively rare name and is not commonly found in historical records. Its meaning is derived from its constituent elements, reflecting the values and concerns of Anglo-Saxon society. The name's rarity suggests it may have been a relatively individual or perhaps regionally specific choice.
