Fidelmia

Fidelmia (in Irish Feidhealm Ruadh, "Fidelmia the Red") was, in the 5th century, a daughter of Lóegaire mac Néill, king of Tara, and was baptized by Saint Patrick. The record calls her venerated in the West, with a commemoration on 11 January, in the Western calendar (new style).

According to the Irish tradition about the king's daughters, she and her sister Ethne received baptism from Patrick's hand and died soon afterwards. This detail is not in the sources of our file but is generally known from Irish tradition. A king's daughter and a saint of Ireland, venerated locally, with no synodal canonization.
