CYNETHRYTH— “threatening kindred”
Alternating with these are Cynric, Cynebald, Cynewald, Cyneburh, Cynethryth, whose first syllable is _cyn_, _kin_, or _kind_, meaning, of course, kindred or lineage. Some refer Kunibert and Kunigund to this same _kin_ instead of _kuhn_. This word _cyn_ is one of those regarded as the root of king, _cyning_, the son of his race or kindred.
