Forbflaith

Forbflaith (later Farbhlaidh, Forbhlaith, or Forlaith) is an Irish and Scottish Gaelic feminine given name meaning "an overlord, ruler, sovereign".[1] It was recorded in this form in 8th-century Ireland.[2]

The Anglicized form Ferelith has been in rare use since the late 19th century (a prominent bearer being Lady Anne Ferelith Fenella Bowes-Lyon (1917–80), later Princess Anne of Denmark, a niece of Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother).[3]
