Astrida
Astrida Origin and Meaning
Astrida is a feminine name with roots in Latin and Norse traditions. It is primarily derived from the Latin word 'astra' meaning 'stars,' giving it celestial associations. The name can also be considered a variant of Astrid, a Scandinavian name meaning 'divinely beautiful' or 'god's strength,' combining the Old Norse elements 'áss' (god) and 'fríðr' (beautiful, beloved). Astrida maintains the strength of Astrid while adding a softer, more melodic ending. Though relatively uncommon, it appeals to parents drawn to names with celestial connections and Nordic heritage. The name carries connotations of beauty, cosmic wonder, and divine strength, making it both delicate and powerful. Astrida remains a distinctive choice that resonates with those seeking names with both heavenly and historical significance.
