Bradamante Name meanings & History

Bradamante is derived from the Old French name 'Bradamant' which means "he who loves action". Used by Matteo Maria Boiardo for a female knight in his epic poem Orlando Innamorato (1483). He possibly intended it to derive from Italian brado "wild, untamed, natural" and amante "loving" or perhaps Latin amantis "lover, sweetheart, mistress", referring to her love for the Saracen Ruggiero. Bradamante also appears in Ludovico Ariosto's poem Orlando Furioso (1532) and Handel's opera Alcina (1735). Bradamante is a name that is rarely used in modern times, but is popular among Italian literature enthusiasts and fans of the works of Ludovico Ariosto.
