Powerful leader; brave ruler
Ricard is the Catalan form of the Germanic name Richard. It is composed of the elements 'ric', meaning power or ruler, and 'hard', meaning brave or hardy. While Richard is a perennial classic in English-speaking countries, Ricard offers a distinctive, European flair while retaining the same strong etymological roots.
