The following possibilities of the relationship are stated: OldSaxonian: folda, anglo-saxon: folde (earth, soil), the etymon seems to be aha (water, river), thereforealso Fuldaha, Uultaha and Uuldaha. One assumes the original waters name Plta read. This acceptance is supported by the fact that there is a Indogermani large number of words with the root in the *pel-/pol. Thus could the Fulda a ringing off variant of the indogermanischen Polota its. With the Fulda can also certain family relations in east Central Europe be found beyond that. In Letti there is Pelta palts, palte (puddle, pool), in addition, the river od. Peltew. A sound shift of“P” after “PF” may have led to the name Fulda. Often rivers were designated after divinities, then the name can point Balder also on the Germanic divinity. Around 800 the Germanic languages were close old-Saxonian, old-Frankish, altfriesisch each other still quite. In Altfriesisch gives it the word to “Bulda” for a coin. Only around 800 the Friesen was back-pushed on its current settlement area, the Germanic sound shift did not take part in it not.
