trudi is Germanic in Origin.
Trudi is a diminutive of Gertrude, from Old High German Gertrud: ger ‘spear’ + þrúð/Trud ‘strength, force.’ The combined sense is “spear strength” or “strong spear.” First used as a German pet form (alongside Trude), Trudi gained independent status in the 20th century in German-speaking countries and then in English, where the lively -i ending gave it a breezy, modern feel.
The wider name family was anchored by medieval devotion to Saint Gertrude of Nivelles and by the mystic Gertrude the Great, keeping the root in steady circulation across Europe. Variants and related forms include Trudy and Trudie (English), Trude (German, Norwegian), Traudi and Traudl (southern German/Austrian), Gerti/Gertie, and the formal bases Gertrude (English), Gertrud and Gertraud (German). Meaning themes emphasize steadfast, protective strength.
