[edit]I don't think he spelt his name "Risteard".Red Hurley (talk) 16:34, 7 November 2008 (UTC)
Hi Red. You are correct in the sense that we don't actually know how he spelt his name, but it is likely that if he could spell he spelt it in Norman French or Latin. However, the annals of the four masters and Loch Cé have the following contemporary late medieval records regarding his name over at http://www.ucc.ie/celt/publishd.html#ihlg: M1210.5 et. al: Coccadh mór do eirghe eitir Righ Saxan & Ri Bretan, teachta do thocht o Righ Saxan ar cend an Gaill-easpuicc, & maithe Ghall n-Ereann imon n-Gaill-epscop do dhol fo thoghairm Righ Saxan, & Riocard Diúid do fhaccbail i n-a iustis i n-Erinn, & an Iustis do thocht co h-Áth Luain ar dháigh go c-cuirfeadh a bhraithre co Luimnech, go Port Láirge, & co Loch Garman & co m-biadh fein i n-Ath Cliath, & i n-Ath Luain. Do-rala dó gur ro thuitset clocha caislén Atha Luain i n-a chenn gur bho marbh gan anmain Riocard Diuid co n-a shacart, & co n-dreim dia mhuintir immaille friss tria mhiorbhailibh Dé, Naoimh Pedair, & Naoimh Chiarain.... & do Ghallaibh Midhe tre feill, & daoine oile imaille ris i tigh Riocaird Diúid i Mainistir Fhobhair....Sloicchedh la Riocard Diuid, la Gallaibh na Midhe & la Maghnus Ua ... Ro marbhadh Riocard Diuid ann....Riocard Diuid an barún do buaisle do Gallaibh d' écc. According to this, Risteárd is the modern spelling for Riocard or Riocárd. 86.42.120.25 (talk) 15:13, 21 November 2008 (UTC)
