Detailed Slovak etymology analysis

Pochádza zo starohornonemeckého mena Uodalrich, doloženého aj v podobe Udalrich. Vzniklo spojením prvkov uodal (dedičný majetok, rodové dedičstvo) a rīhhi (mocný, vládca), takže sa vykladá ako „vládca dedičného majetku“ alebo „mocný vďaka rodovému dedičstvu“. Slovenská podoba Oldrich sa vyvinula sprostredkovane v západoslovanskom jazykovom prostredí.
