Merideth is a unique and distinctive given name of English origin, derived from the Middle English word "merrie," which means cheerful or happy. It was originally used as a surname before evolving into a given name for females during the 20th century. The name Merideth has no particular association with any specific saint or religious figure, nor is it derived from any specific place or geographical location. Instead, its meaning and origins are purely linguistic in nature.
"In 1927, there were six babies named Merideth."
