Blathma is Irish, Irish (Gaelic) in Origin.

Bláthma is an ultra-rare Irish Gaelic given name deriving from bláth “flower, blossom,” conveying ideas of bloom and prosperity. The second element is likely a formative ending rather than a standalone word, giving a succinct, lyrical feminine name. Spelled with the fada as Bláthma in Irish; in English contexts the accent is often dropped to Blathma.

The name surfaces sporadically in medieval Irish material as a personal name or poetic byname and has seen occasional revival in the modern Irish-language community alongside cognate flower-names such as Bláthnaid and Bláithín. Variant or related forms include Bláth, Bláthín/Bláithín (diminutive “little flower”), and Bláthnaid/Bláthnat; it should not be confused with the masculine Bláthmac (“flower-son”), borne by early saints. As a modern choice, Bláthma carries the straightforward meaning “flower” and evokes natural beauty, growth, and renewal.
