Edingu is in Origin.

Edingu is a rare, modern given name with an intentionally global feel. Its etymology is uncertain, but it can be interpreted as a creative blend built on the Germanic Ed-/Edi- element from Old English ead ("wealth, prosperity"), familiar from names like Edward, Edith, and Edwin, combined with a flowing -ngu ending that occurs in various African languages and lends the name a distinctive rhythm. The name has little presence in historical parish or civil records and shows up chiefly in recent decades, reflecting contemporary, cross-cultural naming trends rather than a fixed traditional lineage.

Drawing on the ead root, Edingu is often read to mean "prosperity" or "belonging to wealth," echoing the Old English -ing idea of affiliation. It is used for any gender. Variant forms include Edingo, Edinguo, and Edingu (with occasional diacritic stylings), with short forms Edi, Ed, and Din. Related names by theme include Edin, Edison, and Edwina.
