Almudis is Germanic in Origin.
Almudis is a medieval Occitan–Catalan feminine name with Germanic roots, most plausibly from Old High German adal “noble” + muot “spirit, courage,” yielding the sense “noble mind” or “noble courage.” The -is ending reflects medieval Latin/Occitan feminine formation, and the spelling Almudis appears as a Romance orthographic variant beside the more common Almodis/Almodís.
The name is well attested in 10th–11th‑century charters across Catalonia and Occitania, especially among the nobility. Its best‑known bearer is Almodis de la Marche (d. 1071), countess of Barcelona; Almodis of Mayenne is another recorded figure. After the Middle Ages, usage declined sharply, surviving mainly in historical and genealogical contexts, though it is occasionally revived today as a distinctive heritage choice in Catalan- and Occitan-speaking regions. Documented variants and cognates include Almodis, Almodís (Catalan), Almudis (Romance orthography), and the related German name Almut/Almuth.
Almudis doesn't appear in any of the birth registries or name datasets we track. Most often that means a rare name, a regional or heritage one, or a recent coinage. By any reading, it's an exceptionally uncommon choice.
