Meryttah is Egyptian in Origin.

Meryttah blends ancient and modern. Its core traces to the Ancient Egyptian element mry(t) 'beloved', seen in feminine names like Meryt/Merit; the -ah/-tah flourish is a contemporary ornamental ending that echoes Semitic feminine forms. Taken together, Meryttah carries the sense "beloved" or, by extension, "beloved of a deity", while also brushing against the English word merit, giving it a layered, virtue-tinged feel.

Names built on this root were worn by royal women of New Kingdom Egypt, including Merytre ("Beloved of Ra"), Meryetamun/Merytamun ("Beloved of Amun"), and Meritaten, lending the name a quietly regal pedigree. Meryttah itself is a very rare modern spelling; close variants include Merytah, Meritah, Merita, Meryta, Merytta, Meritta, Meryt, and Merit, with Meret as a related form. Distinct from Marita, it appears today in Afrocentric and creative naming circles seeking historic resonance with a fresh silhouette.
