in reply to a message by Ålefeskarn
Hi,
Here are some additions:
Ricmot was a female name (the most names with the suffix -mot/-mut are male, but there are a few exceptions, probably the most famous one is Almut, which is female).
Some other forms of the name are:
Ricmot
Rikmoda
Richmod
Richmodis
Richmute
Richmut (male!)
Rigmår
Ringmor
In Denmark, Norway and Sweden the -mor/-mår suffix is often misinterpreted to be related to the word mø (DK) / møy (N) / mö (S) meaning "girl, virgin, maiden"
Regards, Satu
