From Wikipedia - Pharamond :
Pharamond or Faramund is a legendary early king of the Franks first referred to in the anonymous 8th century Carolingian text Liber Historiae Francorum , also known as the Gesta regnum Francorum. In this work, which is customarily dated to 727, the anonymous author begins by writing of a mythical Trojan origin for the Franks . The emphasis of the Liber was upon "construct[ing] a specific past for a particular group of people."[1]
The story is told of the election of the first Frankish king.[2] It says that after the death of Sunno , his brother Marcomer , leader of the Ampsivarii and Chatti , proposed to the Franks that they should have one single king, contrary to their tradition. The Liber adds that Pharamond, named as Marchomir's son, was chosen as this first king (thus beginning the tradition of long-haired kings of the Franks), and then states that when he died, his son Chlodio was raised up as the next king. The work says no more of him.
Because there is no reference in any source prior to this work[3] to this figure named Pharamond, who is placed prior to Chlodio (that is, before ca. 428), scholars consider him a legendary rather than historical figure.[4] As a matter of fact in several sources, for example Gregory of Tours , multiple kings are attested to rule simultaneously in later times. It is thus a dubious matter to assume that, even had Pharamond existed, he was ever recognized as sole king. The first king of the Franks who may have been close to this position was Clovis I , but after his death his empire was divided again amongst his sons who ruled again simultaneously.
The myth of Pharamond has led to new legends and romances in later times. In past times this has led to attempts to falsely write Pharamond into Prosper Tiro [5]. Martin Bouquet at a much later date invented an entire history of Pharamond.[1]

Wikipedia says "His father may have been Arnoald , who also was dux of the Scheldt before becoming bishop of Metz."
From Wikipedia:
Saint Arnulf of Metz was born of an important Frankish family at an uncertain date around 582 . In his younger years he was called to the Merovingian court to serve king Theudebert II (595 -612 ) of Austrasia and as dux at the Scheldt. Later he became bishop of Metz . During his life he was attracted to religious life and he retired as a monk. After his death he was canonized as a saint . In the French language he is also known as Arnoul or Arnoulf.
Arnulf gave distinguished service at the Austrasian court under Theudebert II After the death of Theudebert in 612 he was made bishop of Metz . The rule of Austrasia came in hands of Brunhilda , the grandmother of Theudebert, who ruled also in Burgundy in name of her great-grandchildren. In 613 Arnulf joined his politics with Pippin of Landen and led the opposition of Frankish nobles against Queen Brunhilda . The revolt led to her overthrow, torture, and eventual execution, and the subsequent reunification of Frankish lands under Chlothachar II .
Chlothachar later made his son Dagobert I king of Austrasia and he ruled with the help of his advisor Arnulf. Not satisfied with his position, as a bishop he was involved in the murder of Chrodoald in 624 , an impportant leader of the Frankish Agilolfings -family and a protégé of Dagobert.
From 623 (with Pippin of Landen, then the Mayor of the Palace ), Arnulf was an adviser to Dagobert I . He retired around 628 to a hermitage at a mountain site in the Vosges , to implement his lifelong resolution to become a monk and a hermit. His friend Romaric , whose parents were killed by Brunhilda , had preceded him to the mountains and together with Amatus had already established Remiremont Abbey there. Arnulf settled there, and remained there until his death twelve years later.
Arnulf was canonized as a saint by the Roman Catholic Church . In iconography , he is portrayed with a rake in his hand and is often confused in legend with Arnold of Soissons , who is a patron saint of brewing.
Arnulf was married to a woman who may have been called Doda and had children. Chlodulf of Metz was his oldest son, but more important is his second son Ansegisel , who married Begga daughter of Pippin of Landen. His father may have been Arnoald , who also was dux of the Scheldt before becoming bishop of Metz.
