What is the meaning of the name Dagdah ?

The baby name Dagdah is a name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced DAG-dah (IPA: /ˈdɑːɡdɑː/).

Dagdah is Mongolian in Origin.

Dagdah is a rare cross-cultural given name with two plausible etymologies. In a Celtic context it is a respelling of Dagda, from Old Irish dag "good" + dia "god," literally "the good god," title of the chief figure of the Tuatha De Danann. The Dagda embodies abundance, protection, and knowledge, famed for his cauldron of plenty, mighty club, and enchanting harp, and the name can carry connotations of generosity and leadership.

In Indo-Aryan usage Dagdah reflects Sanskrit dagdha, "burned, scorched; purified by fire," an epithet in devotional and ascetic texts (sometimes applied to Shiva or to devotees tempered by Agni). As a personal name it is uncommon and more often occurs in compounds. Historically, Dagdah/Dagda has seen little regular use; modern appearances arise in Celtic revival and neopagan circles or as the Sanskrit form Dagdha in India. Variants include Dagda, Dagdha, Dagde, and Latinized Dagdae.
