Matilda, also spelled Mathilda and Mathilde, is the English form of the Germanic female name Mahthildis, which derives from the Old High German "maht" (meaning "might and strength") and "hild" (meaning "battle"). [1] The name was most popular in the United States between 1880 and 1910, when it was among the top 200 names given to girls. More @Wikipedia
