About Wachilap di Benevento

[http://fmg.ac/Projects/MedLands/SOUTHERN'''%20ITALY,%20PRE-NORMAN.htm#GrimoaldIdied671B] does not include Wachilap's name, which this profile does. However, the relationships are correct. Also, the webpage says nothing about Spoleto, which is where Trasimondo was a duke:
daughter. Paulus Diaconus names "Romualdum filium et duas filias" as the children ofGrimoald & his wife[36]. Paulus Diaconus records that King Grimoald arranged the marriage of "suafilia, Romualdi altera sorore" to "Transamundum…Capuæ comes"[37].

[http://fmg.ac/Projects/MedLands/'''CENTRAL'''%'''20ITALY'''.htm#_Toc246900380] shows the duchy of Spoleto. Again,Trasimondo marries an unnamed daughter of Grimoald. Curiously, Trasimondo has a brother whose name is Wachilap, Apparently, Wachilap was a name used for both males and females, since Faroald II's wife is named Wachilap.

Capuæ comes" was installed as TRASIMONDO Duke of Spoleto after helping Grimoald Duke of

Wikipedia: "Faroald II" [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faroald_II_of_Spoleto]
Faroald II (also spelled Faruald) was the duke of Spoleto from 703, when he succeeded his own father Thrasimund I.

Faroald ruled along with his mother Wachilap. He attacked and took Classis, the port of Ravenna, but he was ordered to return it by King Liutprand. Faroald also founded and endowed the monastery of San Pietro in Valle at Ferentillo. In 724, Faroald's son Thrasimund rebelled against his father and put him in a monastery.
