Archibald Prize Finalists
Archibald is a masculine given name, composed of the Germanic elements '' erchan'' (with an original meaning of "genuine" or "precious") and ''bald'' meaning "bold". Medieval forms include Old High German and Anglo-Saxon . Erkanbald, bishop of Strasbourg (d. 991) was also rendered in Old French. There is also a secondary association of its first element with the Greek prefix '' archi-'' meaning "chief, master", to Norman England in the high medieval period. The form ''Archibald'' became particularly popular among Scottish nobility in the later medieval to early modern periods, whence usage as a surname is derived by the 18th century, found especially in Scotland and later Nova Scotia. Given name English diminutives or hypocorisms include ''Arch, Archy, Archie, and Baldie (nickname)''. Variants include French ''Archambault, Archaimbaud, Archenbaud, Archimbaud'', Italian ''Archimboldo, Arcimbaldo, Arcimboldo'', Portuguese '' Arquibaldo, Arquimbaldo'' and Spanish ''Archibaldo, ...
