Daughter, girl, or sun
In Thai, Tida (ธิดา) is a formal or poetic term for 'daughter.' In Khmer, it is derived from the Sanskrit word for 'daughter' or 'girl.' Additionally, in some West African contexts, it can be a diminutive or variant related to local naming traditions, while in Old Norse it relates to 'time' or 'hour.'
Fewer than 5 girls were named Tida in 2025.
