Meaning: Wolf

Uffe is a boy’s name of Danish origin. Meaning “wolf,” it’s a name that’s most famously associated with a legendary king of the Angles, as told in the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle. In the story, Uffe is said to have been silent during his early years and was often underestimated by his own family. When his aged and blind father’s honor is at stake, he miraculously regains his speech and challenges their foes to a duel in which he emerges the victor. Similarly, if you’d like your soft, gentle, and quiet child to speak up where it matters, Uffe will not disappoint.
