Isolde

The name Isolde is of German origins and it is traditionally used by parents who are looking for a name for their daughter. It is taken from the Old High Germanic words meaning 'ice' and 'hiltja', meaning 'battle', or from the Brythonic word 'adsiltia', meaning 'she who is gazed upon'. According to these origins, the meaning of Isolde is interpreted to be 'ice ruler', 'fair lady' or 'she who is gazed upon'. The name was further popularized by its mention in the title of the opera based on the ancient fable of Tristan and Iseult, composed by the German composer and theatre director, Wilhelm Richard Wagner. The opera was titled 'Tristan Und Isolde', and following its release, the name Isolde gained popularity in German-speaking countries. Wagner later named his daughter Isolde von Bulow.

On a bad day, 1 can be a bit bossy or boastful, hiding any insecurities behind over-developed self-importance. 1 must remember that although it is first, it can very quickly become the loneliest number. Even the most autonomous 1s need the support of their friends, family, and lovers.
