She was the daughter of Chilperic II, King of Burgundy.
Clovis, learning about the girl, asked for her hand, and Gundobad was said to be too afraid to refuse.
In the light of Gundobad's murder of Chilperic, this might be seen as a pursuit of Chlothild's blood feud with the Burgundian king - or it might be that the 'murder' never took place, and was invented retrospectively, to justify Clovis' invasion.

Gunduic's son, Gundobad, succeeded Chilperic; he had three brothers, Godegisel, Chilperic II., and Godomar.
Godegisel appears as a partaker of his sovereignty; Chilperic was said to have been put to death by his order, but this is not certain, as Avitus speaks of Chilperic's death and Godomar's (which happened early in his reign) as a great blow to him.
Gundobad was succeeded by his son Sigismund, who was captured by the Frankish kings in 523 and put to death in the next year.
