"I was reading an article by Constance Bouchard over the weekend on thenaming patters for Medieval women (it was in Medieval
Prosopography, vol. 14, no. 1, pp. 1-?). She stated that Adelaide, wifeof HUGH CAPET, is of unknown parentage. She was not from thePoitou/Aquitaine family, that resulting from the misreading of adocument. She remains unidentified (although the names Adelaide andGisela (given to her daughter, and not a Robertin name) might suggest alink with the later Caroligians - this is my own speculation, notBouchard's)."

Christian Settipani in "La prehistoire des Capetiens" (1993), pp.
415-419, discusses questions raised about the identity of Adelaide,
wife of HUGH CAPET. He explicitly comments on Bouchard's article,
"Patterns of women's names in royal lineages, ninth-eleventh centuries,"Medieval prosopography, ix(1)(1988), pp. 1-32, as well as otherobjections by her and by others. He concludes the the objections arewanting, and that WILLIAM I of Poutou [III of Aquitaine] is Adelaide'sfather (as in ES ii, 76).
