Alidiah is in Origin.

Alidiah is a rare modern feminine given name whose etymology is likely composite. It most plausibly expands Alida - the Dutch/German short form of Adelheid/Adelaide (from Germanic adal “noble” + heid “kind, type”) - with the -iah ending familiar from Hebrew theophoric names. In that reading, Alidiah can carry the sense “noble kind,” while the -iah element evokes “of Yah(weh),” yielding interpretations like “noble of God” or “God has exalted.” Some also hear a blend with Ali (Arabic, “exalted”) or Dia/Diya (Indo‑Aryan/Indonesian, “lamp; light”), giving the name luminous or elevated overtones.

Usage appears in English-speaking countries from the late 20th century onward, remaining extremely uncommon and largely absent from historical records or saintly calendars. Variants and near-forms include Alidia, Alideah, Alidah, and Alida; related choices are Adelaide and Aliyah. Nicknames include Ali, Dia, and Diah. Meaning may be styled as “noble,” “exalted,” or “light,” depending on the chosen lineage.
