What is the meaning of the name Lyttah ?

The baby name Lyttah is a Female name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced LIH-tah (/ˈlɪtə/) or LEE-tah (/ˈliːtə/).

Lyttah is English, Greek, Latin in Origin.

Lyttah is a modern, rare feminine name in English, likely an ornamental respelling that fuses threads from several older names. Its sound and spelling echo Leta/Lita (pet forms and the Latin Laeta “glad, joyful”), Lytta (an archaic feminine form), and the biblical place-name Lydda. The doubled consonant and final h follow contemporary stylistic patterns seen in Hannah or Norah, and the name appears only sporadically in 20th–21st‑century records.

Meaning depends on the lineage a family intends. Linked to Latin Laeta or Laetitia, Lyttah carries the upbeat sense “joyful, happy.” If treated as a variant of Lydda, it reads as a locational name, “from Lydda (Lod).” As a cousin to Leda/Leta it nods to Greek myth; as a parallel to Letha it recalls the Lethe, a poetic river of “forgetfulness.” Related forms include Lytta, Lita, Leta, Leda, Letha, Lydda, and Lyta.
