I don't speak any German, but I believe that. You know, since both countries are located in Europe, the culture around the continent is mixed within each country.

Yeah, but it could also mean Dark Battle, basically from the germanic name Griselda. But yes, it is noted for being either of those origins.

Mostly known from game series on Super Nintendo, N64, basically nintendo series of a game.

But when i think of the name i imagine a cat person, or some women with a lute music in the background. It suits it though.
