Ingeldaz was a West Germanic name which was early borrowed into North Germanic as "Ingjaldr". The name is a combination of the reinforcing prefix "in-" and the element *"-geldaz" which means "payment". It is, however, also possible that the Scandinavian form "Ingjaldr" is a contraction of "Ingivaldr".

People having the name:
*Ingeld, who appears in e.g. "Beowulf" and "Gesta Danorum".
*Ingjald, legendary king of Sweden.
*Ingjald Ringsson, legendary prince of Denmark in "Hrólfs saga Gautrekssonar".
