"Claudine" is a traditional feminine-gendered variant of the name.

It may be helpful to point out the definition of "Claude" as "lame; crippled" since the Roman Emperor and his gens.

https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/claudus#Latin

  limping, halting, lame, crippled 
  c. 347 CE – 420 CE, Hieronymus, Vulgate Matthew 11:5:
  Caeci vident, claudi ambulant […]  The blind see, the lame walk […]
