Meaning & History
Midha is a feminine given name of Arabic origin. It is the feminine form of Midhat, which means "praise, eulogy" in Arabic. The name derives from the root مدح (madaḥa), meaning "to praise." As a feminine variant, Midha retains this connotation of being praiseworthy or commendable.
The name is used in various Arabic-speaking communities, though it is less common than its masculine counterpart. Related masculine forms include Medhat and Midhat, the latter being more widespread. In Islamic tradition, names carrying positive meanings are encouraged, making Midha a modest yet meaningful choice for girls.
While no prominent notable bearers are recorded in English-language sources, the name fits within a broader pattern of Arabic names that emphasize virtues such as praise and gratitude.
