Sigurd

Sigurd is a name imbued with heroism and legend, stemming from Old Norse mythology where Sigurd is a heroic figure known for slaying the dragon Fafnir. The name means 'victorious guardian,' which carries a sense of noble duty and bravery. Although classic in Scandinavian lore, it’s less common in the modern world, making it a rare but distinguished choice. Sigurd’s mythical resonance is sure to appeal to parents with a love for stories and a desire to impart a strong, valorous name to their child. It doesn't usually have a ready nickname, but the full version carries such weight and character that it hardly needs one.
