What is the meaning of the name Larindah ?

The baby name Larindah is a Female name , 3 syllables long and is pronounced luh-RIN-dah (IPA: /ləˈrɪndə/).

Larindah is Malay in Origin.

Larindah is a modern English given name, most often understood as a creative variant of Larinda/Laurinda, ultimately linked to Latin Laurentius (“from Laurentum”) and the laurus, or laurel, a classical emblem of victory and honor. The final -h is a stylistic flourish seen in names like Sarah or Norah. Because the middle element echoes Spanish and Portuguese linda (“pretty”), the name also carries a secondary sense of beauty in contemporary interpretation.

Usage is rare, appearing sporadically in late 20th- and early 21st‑century records, with more established roots found in related forms. Laurinda has long-standing use in Portuguese and Spanish, while English Lorinda and Larinda appear in 18th–19th‑century attestations. Variants and cognates include Larinda, Laurinda, Lorinda, and the related Laurene/Laureen. Diminutives include Lara, Lari, Rina, Lindy, and Indy.
