The female equivalent name element is VÖR
In some combinations, the name element might be just a variant of VARD or be taken from other names ending with -var, where the V originally belongs to the first name element (which means the last element is really HER). [1] [2] [3] [4]
It might be related to Old High German wàr, wàri, Old Saxon wâr = 'true' [4]
