The name Meridia is a girl's name of Spanish, English, Welsh origin meaning "midday, noon, southerly; veterans of Augusta; great lord".

Bright and warm, Meridia has a cheerful, sunny feel to it. It may have emerged as a variation of: Meridian, ultimately from the Latin <em>meridianus</em> meaning "southerly" or "noon"; Merida, a Spanish place name, meaning "veterans of Augusta"; or a form of Meredith, meaning "great lord".
