Mithian Origin and Meaning

The name Mithian is a girl's name meaning "unknown meaning".

With other Cornish names like Elowen and Jago catching people's attention, the mythical sounding Mithian might prove an unexpected and magical feeling choice. Traditionally called Mydhyan, Mithian is a village in Cornwall that sits between St Agnes and Perranporth.

While the exact meaning is unknown, one theory suggests it could be a derivative of the Welsh midd, associating it with a pit or pool in a river. Used for the name of a Princess in the BBC series, Merlin, it feels gentle, mystical, and strong at the same time.
