Scottish, English, and French: from the Middle English personal
name Edmund (Old English Eadmund), composed of the
elements ead ‘prosperity’, ‘fortune’ + mund

bestowed in honor of the East Anglian King St. Edmund the Martyr (died
869), who was killed by pagan Danish invaders, and about whom many
legends grew up.
