Hedieh is Arabic, Persian in Origin.
Hedieh is a Persian feminine name written هدیه, normally pronounced he-DI-ye in Persian. The immediate source is the common Persian noun hedye or hediye, gift, present, an Arabic loan from هدية hadiyya, the earliest secure form for the word. Arabic hadiyya is built on the Semitic root h-d-y, associated with guiding, conveying, or presenting; the doubled medial consonant and feminine ending -a/-ah form a noun for something offered.
Hedieh belongs chiefly to Iranian naming practice, where ordinary nouns with favorable meanings often become given names. Spellings vary because Persian هدیه may be romanized as Hedieh, Hediyeh, Hadieh, or Hadiyeh, while Turkish uses Hediye from the same Arabic source. The name is familiar in Iran and diaspora communities, with wider recognition helped by Iranian actress Hedieh Tehrani; outside Persian and neighboring Muslim contexts it remains comparatively uncommon.
