Ingund
Ingonde, Ingund, Ingunda, or (in Latin) Ingundis (c. 499 in Thuringia – 546) was a queen of the Franks by marriage to Chlothar I, son of Clovis.
She was the daughter of King Baderic of Thuringia (c. 480 – c. 529). She became concubine to Chlothar in c.517, before his marriage in c. 524 to Guntheuc, widow of Chlothar's brother Chlodomer. This brought Chlothar access to Chlodomer's treasury. On Guntheuc's death in 532, Chlothar married Ingund. During their long relationship they had six children, four of whom would become kings or queen:
Shortly after their marriage (c. 533–538) Ingund requested of Chlothar that he find a husband worthy of her sister, Aregund. Finding no one suitable, Chlothar took Aregund as one of his own wives in a polygamous marriage. Ingund did not object to this arrangement; Aregund remained his wife until Ingund's death in 546, after which she fell out of favor with Chlothar.
