Name Meaning
From an Old Norse female personal name composed of the name of the fertility god Ing + fríðr ‘fair, beautiful’. It was introduced into the English-speaking world from Scandinavia in the 20th century and became very popular, largely because of the fame of the Swedish film actress Ingrid Bergman ( 1915–82 ).
