For those curious about the "Ing-rit" pronunciation, that would be the standard German pronunciation (for most dialects). Final d's are pronounced like t's. It's that simple. In Scandinavian countries, where the name was a standard, that would not be the normal pronunciation of the name. Not sure why this website only gives ONE pronunciation. It's hardly universal.

I like this name a lot, and here in Sweden we pronounce it like Ing-rid.

In Norway this is a very old and rather common name. We do not pronounce the d at the end: inn-gri.

I like the name Ingrid. It sounds strong. But all the people I know (in Canada) pronounce a "d" at the end, not a "t".

As far as I know, it is pronounced as it is written; 'in-grid'.
If I wasn't called Lauren, my parents were going to call me this, apparently. I wish they had. In response to bibi, this name is not American. It is just used there. Just like some Americans might be called 'Midori' or 'Hamish' or whatever.
