      The name Davida originates from Hebrew and is the feminine form of the popular name David. David, meaning beloved or friend, holds significant biblical importance as the name of the renowned king of Israel. Derived from the Hebrew root word dwd, it symbolizes strength, nobility, and leadership. In ancient history, the name Davida was uncommon, primarily since women's names were less recorded than men's. However, it is notably mentioned in the Hebrew Bible, specifically in 2 Samuel 3:3, which refers to David's wife, the daughter of Talmai, King of Geshur.

      In modern times, the name Davida has gained recognition as a unique and powerful choice for girls. Its Hebrew roots and association with the noble figure of David make it a name that embodies strength and femininity simultaneously. While not as prevalent as its male counterpart, Davida has become increasingly popular in recent decades as people seek unconventional and meaningful names for their daughters. It is primarily used within English-speaking communities and is often cherished by individuals who appreciate its biblical significance and historical origins.
