Aristidou is Greek in Origin.

Aristidou is a Greek patronymic name, most common as a surname, formed from the genitive case of Aristides (Greek Aristidēs). Built on aristos “best, excellent” plus the hereditary suffix -idēs “descendant,” the form -dou/-ou marks “of Aristides,” i.e., “belonging to/child of Aristides,” often glossed as “of the best.” It is particularly frequent in Cyprus and within the Greek diaspora, where classical given names generated stable family surnames.

As a given name, Aristidou is rare but may appear to honor a maternal line or preserve a patronymic as a middle name. The root name gained prestige from the Athenian statesman Aristides “the Just” (5th c. BCE), sustaining use across Hellenic history. Related given-name variants include Aristides, Aristeidis/Aristeides, Aristide (French/Italian/Romanian), Arístides (Spanish/Portuguese), and the short form Aris. See also the cognate surname Aristidis.
