What is the meaning of the name Ingrida ?

The baby name Ingrida is a Female name , 3 syllables long and is pronounced /ˈɪŋɡrɪdə/ (ING-gri-da).

Ingrida is Norse, Scandinavian in Origin.

Ingrida is the Lithuanian and Latvian form of Ingrid, rooted in Old Norse Ingiríðr/Ingriðr, from the theonym Ing/Yngvi (another name for the god Freyr) + fríðr “fair, beloved.” The meaning is commonly rendered as “beautiful/fair one of Ing” or “beloved by Ing.” Close variants include Scandinavian Ingrid, Latvian Ingrīda, Estonian Ingrit, and related short forms Inga and Inger; masculine cognates stem from Ing- elements across Germanic names.

Attested in medieval Scandinavia, the Ingrid line of names spread around the Baltic through trade and later cultural exchange, with Ingrida taking hold in the 20th century in Lithuania and Latvia. Its modern profile was buoyed by the international fame of actress Ingrid Bergman, while regional prominence today is illustrated by figures such as Lithuanian stateswoman Ingrida Šimonytė. The name balances Norse mythic heritage with crisp Baltic phonology, yielding a classic yet contemporary choice.
