Question:

Name meanings?

Can anyone tell me what my middle name means? Its: Cleotilde

My mom said it meant 'witch' but I don't think thats right. It's from my Grandma, (my mother's mom), it was her first name. She was Native American Indian. Thanks!


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: Cleotilde is a variant of Clothilde which means famous battle (see link below). I have a good friend whose daughter is named Clothilde. The witch connotation might come from the fictional character, Do㱡 Cleotilde, "the witch of the 71" in the Spanish-language TV series, El chavo del ocho.
