Godfred, of Old Norse origin, translates to 'peace of god'. It was borne by several medieval kings and nobles, most notably Godfred I (788-810), the first historical ruler of Denmark. This name offers a unique blend of historical significance and divine connotations.
"Godfred was quite popular among parents in the early 20th century, with a total of 13 births recorded between 1916 and 1917. After a long gap, it resurfaced again in 2015, bringing the overall tally to 18."
