Baldwin is an Old Germanic and Anglo-Saxon name. It may derive either from Bealdwine, or the Old German equivalent Baldavin, meaning 'brave, bold friend'. Baldwin is Baudouin in Old French and Balduīnus in Latin, from Proto-Germanic *Balþawiniz, meaning "bold friend." In Arabic sources, the name is بالدوين (Bāldwīn).

It is found in many other modern European languages: Baudouin (French), Baldovino (Italian), Boudewijn (Dutch), Balduino (Spanish and Esperanto).[1]
