Comments (Meaning / History Only)

I am Swedish and this is my name, so I was surprised by the international meaning "peace". The name Frida is an Old Norse name meaning "the beautiful" and "the beloved", at least in Scandinavia. :) [noted -ed]
Can also mean "Peaceful Ruler" and "Noble Woman".
In some instances, Frida may be a nickname for Frederica.
My first name is Frida, and I guess I like it enough. But I'm not sure of the origin - one theory is the one Caprice posted, the other is that it is from the word "frid" meaning "peace".
(I'm Swedish, and frid in Swedish means peace, as in peace of mind.)FairyGirl - ouch. I was bullied from ten to thirteen years of age because of that.
Means "Joy" in Yiddish.
Frida is also a Nordic name meaning "beautiful" or "beloved".
