Parmida is Persian in Origin.
Parmida (Persian: پارمیدا, commonly pronounced PAR-mee-dah) is a modern Persian feminine given name. Linguistically it belongs to New Persian yet echoes Achaemenid naming traditions: many Iranian sources treat it as an elaborated variant of Pârmīs (rendered Parmys by Herodotus), the name of a granddaughter of Cyrus the Great who married Darius I. The -idā ending is popular in contemporary Persian coinages, giving the name a classic yet modern profile.
Documented chiefly since the late 20th century in Iran and the Persian diaspora, Parmida is favored for its regal association rather than a transparent dictionary meaning. Proposed meanings vary, but no secure Old Persian etymology is agreed upon; it is best understood as a name linked to Persian nobility. Variants and related forms include Parmīda/Parmidā (transliterations), Parmis/Parmys (historical), and the less common Parmedā. It is unrelated to Sanskrit Pāramitā (perfection).
