Subject: Germanic and Slavic names (Middle Ages)

Hi!
I have met several interesting Germanic or Slavic root names, and wondered how old they are!
There is Duobra / Dobra, said to be from Czech dobra "good".
There is also Golda and Golta from "gold".
They seem quite old to me, but I cannot find more precise data.

Thank you!
