Indeg is in Origin.

Indeg is a rare Welsh feminine name rooted in Middle Welsh, generally connected to teg, “fair, beautiful,” with an intensifying element that yields senses such as “very fair,” “spotless,” or “pure.” The pronunciation is usually IN-deg. The name’s compact form and transparent link to teg place it in the same semantic family as Tegan and Tegwen, though Indeg stands as a distinct historical form.

Indeg is attested in medieval Welsh literature, notably in the Mabinogion and the Welsh Triads, where Indeg ferch Garwy (“Indeg, daughter of Garwy”) is named among famed beauties at Arthur’s court. While long uncommon in everyday use, the name has seen occasional modern revival in Wales alongside other heritage choices. Spelling variation is minimal in contemporary Welsh; manuscript-era forms vary slightly, but Indeg is now standard. Related forms (not strict variants) include Teg, Tegan, and Tegwen.
