In German lands she was known as '''Kümmernis''' ("grief" or "anxiety"). In Poland she was called '''Frasobliwa''' ("sorrowful"), while in the Czech Lands she received the name '''Starosta''' ("sorrow" or "concern"). She was sometimes confused with a female martyr saint known as '''Liberata''' in Italy and '''Librada''' in Spain ("liberated") whose feast day is on July 10; while Saint Liberata is a crucified, beardless female usually with a crown, Wilgefortis is always depicted with a beard and generally crownless. In France, Wilgefortis is known as '''Débarras''' ("riddance"). The confusion between the martyr Saint Liberata and Wilgefortis extended to places such as [[Sigüenza]], Spain, where Liberata was widely venerated.{{sfnp|Friesen|2001|pages=47–48}}
