OSWALD

Derived from the Old Inglés elements os god and weald power, ruler. Saint Oswald was a king of Northumbria who introduced Christianity to northeast England in the 7th century before being killed in battle. There was also an Old Nórdico cognate Ásvaldr in use in England, being borne by the 10th-century Saint Oswald of Worcester, who was of Danés ancestry. Though the name had died out by the end of the Middle Ages, it was revived in the 19th century.
