What is the meaning of the name Deividas ?

The baby name Deividas is a Male name , 3 syllables long and is pronounced DAY-vee-dahs (approximate Lithuanian pronunciation).

Deividas is Lithuanian in Origin.

Deividas is a Lithuanian masculine given name, a contemporary adaptation of David, ultimately from the Hebrew Dawid/Dāwīd, conventionally interpreted as “beloved.” The spelling with ei reflects a phonetic rendering of the international form, while the -as ending fits Lithuanian masculine morphology. Through the fame of King David, the name spread throughout Europe, and Deividas represents Lithuania’s modern, globally aligned iteration of that tradition.

Within Lithuania, the earlier, church-based form is Dovydas; Deividas came into wider use in the late 20th–early 21st century and remains familiar in everyday use, especially visible in sports and media. Related Lithuanian variants include Deivydas and the short form Deivis. International equivalents include David (English, French, Spanish), Davide (Italian), Dawid (Polish), Dávid (Hungarian, Slovak), and Davyd (Ukrainian). Core meaning across these forms stays consistent: a person who is loved, cherished, and esteemed.
