Aletha
Aletha Origin and Meaning
Aletha is a feminine name with ancient Greek origins, derived from 'aletheia' meaning 'truth' or 'sincerity.' This elegant and uncommon name carries philosophical associations with truth-seeking and honest character. Aletha experienced modest popularity in the United States during the late 19th and early 20th centuries but has since become quite rare, giving it a vintage appeal for modern parents seeking distinctive options. The name offers a sophisticated sound with its soft 'th' consonant blend while remaining relatively straightforward to pronounce. Aletha shares some phonetic qualities with more common names like Alethea, Aletha, and Alicia, but maintains its own distinctive character. Its meaning connecting to truth and authenticity makes it particularly meaningful for parents valuing these qualities.
