Alledah is in Origin.

Alledah (AL-eh-dah or ah-LAY-dah) is a rare modern feminine name, likely a creative variant of Alida/Aleida, the Dutch-German short forms of Adelheid (Adelaide). From Old High German adal “noble” + heid “kind, type,” it’s read as “noble kind.” Alida/Aleida are attested in the medieval Low Countries and saw modest revival in the 19th century. The doubled l and -ah ending give it a softer contemporary finish.

Recorded only sporadically in late 20th–21st-century use, Alledah parallels revivals of Aleda and Leda yet remains uncommon. It also echoes Arabic Al-Huda (“guidance”), sometimes prompting an alternate reading “guidance” in multicultural settings. Related forms include Alida, Aleida, Aleda, Alleda, Allida, and Elida; nicknames Ali, Alla, and Leda.
