Walter (name)
Walter or Walther is a masculine given name, from an Old High German ''Walthari'', containing the elements ''wald'' "rule" and ''hari'' "army, warrior".〔(MFnames.com – Origin and Meaning of Walter )〕
The Latinized form is ''Waltharius'', the title of a poem on the legendary Gothic king Walter of Aquitaine. A fragmentary Old English poem on the same character is known as ''Waldere''. The Dutch equivalent of the name is Wouter. The name also entered the French language as Gauthier (and Wauthier), Spanish as'' Gutierre'' and Italian as Gualtiero.
Jacob Grimm in ''Teutonic Mythology'' speculates that ''Walthari'', literally "wielder of hosts", may have been an epithet of the god of war, Ziu or Eor, and that the circumstance that the hero of the ''Waltharius'' poems loses his right hand in battle may be significant, linking him to the Norse tradition of Tyr.
