Undine, a name of literary grace
Undine is a relatively uncommon name globally, with its strongest presence in German-speaking countries and the Baltic states. Originating from the Latin ‘unda’ meaning ‘wave’, it gained prominence through Friedrich de la Motte Fouqué’s 1811 novella featuring a water spirit named Undine. The name is almost exclusively feminine, carrying a mood of ethereal beauty and romanticism. Its history is closely tied to European Romanticism and folklore, evoking images of water and otherworldly grace. While rare in the USA, it appeals to those seeking a unique and evocative name with literary connections.
