Maudi is Germanic in Origin.
Maudi is a modern respelling and diminutive of Maudie, itself the affectionate pet form of Maud, the medieval English form of Matilda. Matilda descends from Old High German Mahthildis (mahti “might, strength” + hild “battle”), giving Maudi the enduring meaning “strength in battle” or “mighty in battle.”
Norman influence carried Matilda/Maud into England, where it was borne by royals such as Empress Matilda (often called Maud); the name resurfaced in Victorian–Edwardian fashion, aided by Tennyson’s poem Maud (1855), and later by Queen Maud of Norway. Today Maudi feels vintage yet playful, used mostly in English-speaking countries as a quirky alternative to Maudie or Maude. Variants and related forms include Maud, Maude, Maudie, Matilda, Mathilde, Matilde, Mahaut, Mafalda, Tilda, Tilly, and Tillie. Pronounced MAWD-ee in English.
