Admatha is in Origin.

Admatha is a rare biblical name of probable Old Persian or Median origin, preserved in the Hebrew text of Esther (1:14) as ’Admāthā, one of the seven princes of Persia and Media who had access to Ahasuerus. Because the form resembles Hebrew ’ădāmâ “earth, soil,” some have glossed it as “of the earth” or “land,” but most scholars treat that as a folk etymology; the precise Iranian root remains uncertain and the meaning is effectively unknown.

Outside Scripture the name has almost no historical currency, appearing mainly in translations and commentaries. Traditional English Bibles use Admatha; minor variants include Admathah and Admata, while certain Greek and Latin witnesses show Admeta or Armatha. Usage today is extremely uncommon and typically masculine, though its rarity and ambiguous meaning make it attractive to parents seeking an obscure, antique, and culturally layered choice with biblical and Persian associations.
