Aveda, derived from Sanskrit, means 'knowledge' or 'understanding'. It's a unisex name that gained popularity due to the Aveda Corporation, founded by Horst Rechelbacher in 1978, which focuses on beauty products made with natural ingredients. The name is also associated with Aveda Institute, a chain of cosmetology schools worldwide.
"Aveda experienced a dip in popularity from 2010 to 2018 with only six births recorded that year. However, it regained momentum in recent years, with five births each in 2021 and 2022. Overall, there have been twenty-one babies named Aveda since 2010."
