Daithm is Irish (Gaelic) in Origin.
Daithm is a modern, rare given name, most plausibly a creative blend shaped by Irish Gaelic Dáithí (pronounced DAH-hee) and the Welsh pet-form Dai of David. It is not an attested traditional form, but its components evoke deep roots: Dáithí/Dathí appears in early Irish sources, borne by a 5th‑century High King, and Dai is long-standing in Wales. The unusual -thm ending lends a contemporary, crafted feel rather than a historical Irish morphology.
Meanings follow its influences. From Dáithí, many sources gloss the sense as “swift, nimble” or “skillful”; via Dai/David, it inherits the Hebrew “beloved.” Related variants and guides include Daithí/Daithi, Dathi, and Dahy; creative elaborations such as Daitham or Daithim sometimes appear to smooth pronunciation. Nicknames could be Dai or Dee. Usage remains minimal and chiefly among parents seeking a Celtic-leaning name with a distinctive, compact silhouette.
We can't find Daithm in any of the birth registries or name datasets we track. Most often that means a rare name, a regional or heritage one, or a recent coinage. Either way, it's a name very few children share.
