Yuditha is Hebrew in Origin.

Yuditha is a modern Indonesian rendering of Judith, ultimately from Hebrew Yehudit. The name means “woman of Judea” or “Jewish woman,” as the feminine of Yehudi; by association with Yehudah, it is sometimes interpreted as “praised.”

Usage traces to the biblical heroine who beheaded Holofernes in the deuterocanonical Book of Judith, inspiring enduring use among Jewish, Catholic, Orthodox, and later Protestant communities. Medieval bearers include Judith of Bavaria and Judith of Flanders. Through colonial-era contact and transliteration conventions favoring initial Y over J, forms like Yuditha/Yudita gained currency in Indonesia, while Judith remained standard elsewhere. International variants include Yehudit/Yehudith (Hebrew), Judith (English/French/German), Judit (Spanish/Catalan/Hungarian), Giuditta (Italian), Judite (Portuguese), Judyta (Polish), Jutta (German), Jitka (Czech), and Yudit (Ladino/Slavic transliteration). Diminutives and short forms include Judy, Judi, Judie, Dita, and Ditte.
