What is the meaning of the name Anda ?

The baby name Anda is a Female name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced /ˈændə/ (AN-dah — common English),/ˈanda/ (AHN-dah — Romanian/Latvian).

Anda is Albanian, Latvian, Romanian in Origin.

Anda is a feminine given name found chiefly in Latvia, Romania, and Estonia. It most often serves as a short form of a family of And- names - Andrea, Andreea, Andra - ultimately traced to Greek Andreas (aner, andros), conveying 'manly, courageous'. In Baltic use it is also well established as a standalone given name. In Estonian, the form coincides with the verb anda 'to give' and echoes the noun and 'gift, talent,' which reinforces a positive, generous sense for contemporary bearers.

Recorded across the 20th century, Anda remains familiar without being common. Variants and cognates include Andra (Latvia/Romania), Andrea (Italian/English), Andreea (Romanian), and masculine Andris/Andrei; nicknames such as Andi/Andie occur. Usage overlaps with Amanda in some languages, where Anda can function as a clipped pet form. The core meaning aligns with the Andrew/Andrea family: strength, bravery, and spirited resolve.
