Daveda is a rare feminine given name in English, generally viewed as a variant or elaboration of Davida, the feminine form of David. From Hebrew Dawid, “beloved,” the name carries the same meaning. The -eda ending reflects 19th–20th‑century English habits of crafting feminine forms with -a, -etta, or -eda. Use is attested sporadically in the United States and other Anglophone countries from the mid‑20th century onward, never broadly popular.

Related variants include Davida, Davina (a Latinized/Scottish feminine of David), Davita, Davetta, and Daveta; rarer spellings such as Daveeda also appear. Nicknames may include Davey, Davi, Dava, Vida, or Veda. Though its sound echoes Sanskrit Veda (“knowledge”), Daveda’s lineage is Hebrew via David.
