Origin and meaning of Ubaldo
Ubaldo is of Germanic origin, from the blend of hug ('mind, spirit, sense') and bald ('bold, brave'): it means 'bold of mind' or 'brave of heart'. The name is tied above all to Saint Ubaldo Baldassini, bishop and patron of Gubbio, celebrated with the famous Race of the Candles. In Italy it is a traditional name, especially rooted in Umbria, rare today but strong and ancient in tone. Beyond Italy's borders it is virtually unknown.
