From Middle French galde, waudee, originally from Frankish *walda. Cognate with Spanish gualda, Catalan galda, Portuguese gualdo, Italian gualda, and also to English weld, Dutch wouw, German Wau. If the Frankish root is a reflex of Proto-Germanic *walþō (itself from Proto-Germanic *walþuz), then it is a doublet of guède.
