==Marriage and children== According to the ''[[Chronicle of Fredegar]]'' Dagobert I had "three queens almost simultaneously, as well as several concubines".{{efn|Fredegar IV, 60.}}{{sfn|Durant|1950|p=94, 460}} The ''rex Brittanorum'' [[Saint Judicael|Judicael]] came to Clichy to visit Dagobert I, but opted not to dine with him due to his misgivings about Dagobert's moral choices, instead dining with the king's referendary [[Audoin (bishop)|St. Audoen]].{{sfn|James|1988|p=101}} The ''Chronicle of Fredegar'' names three queens. [[Nanthild]], Wulfegundis, and Berchildis, but none of the concubines.{{citation needed|date=March 2021}} In 625/6 Dagobert married Gormatrude, a sister of his father's wife [[Sichilde]]. The marriage was childless. After divorcing Gormatrude in 629/30 he made [[Nanthild]], a Saxon servant (''puella'') from his personal entourage, his new queen.{{efn|Fredegar IV, 58: ''Nantechildem unam ex puellis de menisterio matrimonium accipiens reginam sublimavit''.}} She gave birth to [[Clovis II]] (b. 634/5) later king of Neustria and Burgundy.{{citation needed|date=March 2021}} Shortly after his marriage to Nanthild, a woman called Ragnetrude bore Dagobert I a son, [[Sigebert III]] (b. 630/1) later king of Austrasia.{{citation needed|date=March 2021}} It has been speculated that [[Regintrud]], abbess of [[Nonnberg Abbey]], was also a child of Dagobert I, although this theory does not fit Regintrud's supposed date of birth between 660 and 665. She married into the [[Bavaria]]n [[Agilolfing]] family, either [[Theodo of Bavaria]] or his son [[Theodbert of Bavaria]].{{citation needed|date=March 2021}}
