medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
This name has come into English in its Latin form 'Desiderius'. As,
e.g., in Desiderius Erasmus; Desiderius, the last king of the Lombards;
Desiderius II, abbot of Montecassino; Desiderius the lector (a companion
in martyrdom of Januarius of Benevento and of Naples). Best, John Dillon
