Biography

"Gundomar I (also Gundimar, Godomar, or Godemar) was eldest son and successor of Gebicca, King of the Burgundians. He succeeded his father in 406 or 407 and reigned until 411. He was succeeded by his brother Giselher." [1]

Notes

While there is a historical reference, for these names...

"Gebicam, Godomarem, Gislaharium, Gundaharium, patrem quoque nostrum et patruum"

...as FMG states...

"The precise relationship with the four named individuals is unknown." [2]

This is where we run into the border between historical records and the Norse Sagas. There, in the Sagas, relationships are given for the names in question, however, how accurate they are is another question.
