What is the meaning of the name Panthya ?

Panthya is in Origin.

Panthya is a rare modern given name most plausibly a creative variant of Panthea, via the Iranian form Pantea/Panteha. Panthea comes from Greek elements pan “all” and theos “god,” yielding the sense “all-divine” or “of all the gods.” Through Persian and Hellenistic contacts, Panthea/Pantea entered Iranian naming and survives today, which explains contemporary spellings that replace -thea with -thya.

In classical sources, Panthea appears in Xenophon’s Cyropaedia as the virtuous wife of Abradatas, and a famed beauty from Smyrna was the mistress of Emperor Lucius Verus. Variants and related forms include Panthea, Pantheia, Pantea, Panteha, Panteia, and Panthia; nicknames Thea, Tia, or Pan. The -th- in Panthya can echo South Asian panth “path” (from Sanskrit panthā), sometimes yielding a folk sense of “traveler,” though the primary etymology remains Greek.
