Saint Godelina (also Godelieve Godeliève Godeleva) (Dutch: Sint-Godelieve) (c. 1049 – July 6 1070) was a Flemish saint. Tradition states that she was pious as a young girl and became much sought after by suitors as a beautiful young woman. Godelina however wanted to became a nun. A nobleman named Bertolf (Berthold) of Gistel however determined to marry her successfully invoked the help of Godelina’s father’s suzerain Eustace II Count of Boulogne.
