Goldea is English in Origin.

Goldea is a rare feminine name that developed as an Anglicized elaboration of Yiddish Golda/Golde, ultimately from Germanic gold, "gold." Among Ashkenazi Jews, names drawn from precious metals signified value and good fortune; Hebrew Zahava ("golden") is often used as a Hebrew parallel, and Slavic Zlata shares the same meaning. The sense conveyed is "gold; golden; precious, valuable."

In use across Eastern European Jewish communities, the base form Golda traveled with the diaspora into English-speaking countries in the late nineteenth and twentieth centuries. The spelling Goldea surfaces as a decorative or phonetic variant, matching English endings like -ea/-ia, while the cozy diminutive Goldie became widely familiar. Awareness of the root name was boosted by stateswoman Golda Meir. Variants and cognates include Golda, Golde, Goldie/Goldy, and related Zahava and Zlata. Goldea itself remains uncommon today.
