No source (e.g. Gregory, Fredegar, etc) says he had a daughter called Bilitilde (Bilichild). Chlothar I had no fewer than 6 or 7 partners, and only one daughter is known (infanticide?), it is possible that there were other unrecorded daughters. However, the Merovingians rarely allowed their daughters to marry, and if they did it was to foreign kings or other members of the dynasty [Ref: exet0133 SGM 1/19/1996]
