Eadgifu

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Eadgifu is an Anglo-Saxon female name which may appear as Edgiva. It sometimes appears as Edith and can therefore be confused with Eadgyth. It might refer to:

  • Edgiva of Kent (died c. 966), Queen-mother in the reigns of Kings Edmund and Eadred
  • Eadgifu of England (died after 955), wife of King Charles the Simple
  • Eadgifu of Nunnaminster (floruit 975), daughter of King Edgar
