Meaning: Mighty in battle

The name Tilde exudes a powerful aura and means “mighty in battle.” It is feminine and has old German roots and an abundance of variations, such as Mathilde, Batilde, or Clotilde. Its most famous derivative, Matilda, has been around since the 11th century and became known from Empress Matilda of England. Nowadays, it is renowned for Roald Dahl’s children’s novel, Matilda, which tells the tale of a highly-intelligent child who has to overcome a series of obstacles before finding her much-deserved happy ending. Tilde is a lovely, shortened, and unique version of the moniker, allowing your little one to embrace their individuality and use their strength to overcome anything they set their minds to.
