Herleva, although this is not certain.

Enguerrand II of Ponthieu (died 1053) by whom she had issue; second
Lambert II, Count of Lens (died 1054); and third
Odo II of Champagne son of the Count of Troyes. By Lambert she had a daughter,
Judith of Lens, who married
Waltheof, Earl of Northumbria (executed 1076). Their daughter,
Maud, 2nd Countess of Huntingdon, took for her second husband King
David I of Scotland.
She gained the title of Princess when William the Conqueror became
King of England[
