Aleathiah is in Origin.

Aleathiah is a rare modern feminine given name, most plausibly a creative elaboration of Alethea, the English form of Greek aletheia, meaning “truth.” Alethea was embraced in 17th-century England among virtue names, and spellings such as Alethia and Aleatha appeared in 18th- and 19th-century records. The -iah ending in Aleathiah mirrors contemporary tastes and visually echoes Hebrew names, but this form does not carry a separate Hebrew theophoric origin; its meaning is typically understood through Alethea as “truth” or “verity.”

Usage remains very uncommon, showing up sporadically in modern English-speaking records. Variant forms include Alethea, Alethia, Aleatha, Aleathia, Alithea, Lethia, and Lethea; related but etymologically distinct is Althea (“healer/wholesome”) from Greek althein “to heal.” Diminutives such as Thea, Lea/Leah, and Ali are sometimes used. Parents choosing Aleathiah often value its virtuous sense paired with an ornate, lyrical spelling.
