Guadalupe (name)

Guadalupe is a female given name in the Spanish language. The name initially designated a river in the province of Extremadura, Spain. It has been interpreted either as an Arabic word, or an Arabic/Latin compound word. In the first case, it would derive from Wadi-al-luben, in Arabic "hidden river"; in the second case it would derive from Wadi Lupe, a compound of Wadi (Andalusian Arabic for "river") and lupe (Latin for "wolf").
