What Does the Name Adalida Mean?
Adalida is a rare feminine name usually understood as a variant of Adelaide, from the Germanic name Adalheidis. That name combines adal, "noble," with heid, "kind" or "nature," giving the customary meaning "noble nature." The heid element is a Germanic word for kind or sort, not the English word heathen. In Romance use, the related form is Spanish Adelaida, and Adalida is close to that form.
Adalida Name History & Origins
Adalheidis is the old Germanic ancestor of Adelaide. The name was borne by Saint Adelaide (Adelheid, 931 - 999), wife of Emperor Otto I and later regent for her grandson Otto III, which gave it a prominent religious association in medieval Europe. It took different forms across western Europe, including French Adélaïde, Spanish Adelaida, and Italian Adelaide. Adalida is a rare feminine variant with a shortened second element; it is sometimes treated as a Spanish form, but the exact route by which this spelling arose is uncertain.
