Settipani reconstructs possible family relationships between the individuals named Nibelung and Childebrand who are recorded in documentation in the 8th and 9th centuries. The onomastic connection is obvious, given these unusual names. However, there are too many variables, including the possibility of family relationships through cognatic as well as agnatic lines, for such a reconstruction to be meaningful. …
5. [--- . m ---.] [Two possible children]:
a) [NIBELUNG [IV] ([810/20]-after 879). Settipani suggests that Nibelung [IV] was the son of Nibelung [III] but the time span between the only mention of the latter (in 818) and the last mention of the former (879) appears too long for them to have been father and son. Nibelung [IV]'s birth date range is estimated on the basis of his being active in service of the king in early adulthood in 843, and his last known mention in 879. Charles II "le Chauve" King of the West Franks granted property "in pago Otisioderinse seu Wastinense…curtem…Hermoldi super fluvium Betus…villa…Villasallum" to "fidelis nostro…Nivelongo" by charter dated 843[357]. A document issued by Charles II "le Chauve" King of the West Franks dated Nov 853 names "Hugo, Gozso, Nivilungus" as missi in "Niverniso, Alciodriso, Avaliso"[358]. Comte in Vexin: Charles II "le Chauve" King of the West Franks donated property "in pago Vulcassino…Pontisaræ" to the abbey of Saint-Denis with the consent of "Nivelongo comite", by charter dated 864[359]. "Heccardus comes" names "…Nivelongo atque Theoderico germano suo" among the executors of his testamentary disposition dated to [Jan 876][360]. Nibelung [IV]'s estimated birth date range as shown above is consistent with his belonging to the same generation as Ekkehard and his brothers, maybe their first cousin. Nibelung subscribed a charter of comte Adelramm, maybe his son-in-law, dated 879[361].
m ---. The name of the wife of Nibelung [IV] is not known.] Nibelung [IV] & his wife had [three] children:
b) [THEODERIC [VII] . "Heccardus comes" names "…Nivelongo atque Theoderico germano suo" among the executors of his testamentary disposition dated to [Jan 876][366].]
