Adlaide as a Baby Name. Meaning and Origin of Adlaide

What is the meaning of the name Adlaide ?

The baby name Adlaide is a Female name , 3 syllables long and is pronounced AD-ə-layd (English: /ˈædəleɪd/).

Adlaide is Latin in Origin.

Adlaide is a modern re-spelling of Adelaide, ultimately from the Old High German Adalheidis (adal “noble” + heid “kind, sort”), yielding the meaning “noble type” or “of noble character.” Pronounced AD-uh-layd, Adlaide keeps the familiar sound while presenting a streamlined visual form. The name has long been used in English and French through the Norman and medieval transmission of Adelais, later settled as Adelaide.

Usage flourished via Saint Adelaide of Italy (10th century) and Queen Adelaide, consort of Britain’s William IV, whose name was given to the Australian city. After Victorian popularity, the name has enjoyed a 21st-century revival among vintage classics; Adlaide appears as a creative variant but remains rare. Related forms and international variants include Adelaide, Adélaïde (French), Adelaida (Spanish), Adelheid (German), and Adela, Adèle, and Ada; diminutives and short forms include Heidi, Della, and Addie.
