Ardith, pronounced /ɑːrdaɪθ/, is an uncommon feminine given name of British origin. It was derived from the Old English elements 'eard', meaning 'strong' or 'hardy', and 'þyð', which signifies 'strength'. The name Ardith is believed to have emerged during the Middle Ages, although it remains relatively obscure even today. Those bearing this distinctive name may find themselves with a unique identity that sets them apart from others with more common monikers.
The name Ardith experienced some fluctuations in popularity throughout the years, with a peak of 11 births both in 1928 and 1929. The highest decade for this name was the 1920s, with a total of 57 births, followed by the 1930s with 46 births. However, it appears that Ardith's popularity began to decline in the mid-20th century, as there were only 28 births recorded from 1940 onwards, and none after 1955 according to these statistics.
