Millicent Meaning
From the Germanic name Amalasuintha, composed of the elements amal "work, labour" and swinþ "strength". Amalasuintha was a 6th-century queen of the Ostrogoths. The Normans introduced this name to England in the form Melisent or Melisende. Melisende was a 12th-century queen of Jerusalem, the daughter of Baldwin Ii. Millicent is derived from the Old French Melisende, ultimately originating in Germanic languages and meaning "strong worker". Millicent has been used as a given name since the Middle Ages.
