Arminda

Arminda Origin and Meaning

The name Arminda is a girl's name.

Arminda is a feminine name with Latin and Spanish origins, possibly derived from the Germanic name Ermenhild, composed of elements meaning "whole" or "universal" and "battle." In Portuguese and Spanish-speaking countries, it has maintained modest popularity over centuries. The name appears in literature and opera, notably as a character in Handel's opera "Arminio." Arminda combines strength and femininity with its melodic sound and strong consonants. The name conveys a sense of determination and dignity, with the soft ending adding a gentle touch to its otherwise robust character. While never reaching mainstream popularity in English-speaking countries, Arminda offers a distinctive option for parents seeking a name with Latin flair and historical depth.
