Willia Origin and Meaning

The name Willia is a girl's name.

Willia is a feminine name that serves as a variation of the more common Wilhelmina or a feminine form of William. Derived from Germanic roots, the elements 'wil' meaning 'will' or 'desire' and 'helm' meaning 'helmet' or 'protection' combine to give the name a meaning of 'resolute protector.' Willia has an old-fashioned charm that resonates with vintage name enthusiasts. More popular in the early 20th century, it has become relatively uncommon in contemporary usage. The name carries a gentle, classic quality while maintaining feminine strength. Willia offers a sweet alternative for parents who appreciate traditional names but want something less frequently used than Willa or Wilhelmina.
