Ida f
English: originally a Norman name, of Germanic origin, derived from the element íd work. This died out during the later Middle Ages. It was revived in the 19th century, mainly as a result of its use in Tennyson's The Princess (1847) as the name of the central character, who devotes herself to the cause of women's rights and women's education in a thoroughly Victorian way. The name is also associated with Mount Ida in Crete, which was connected in classical times with the worship of Zeus, king of the gods, who was supposed to have been brought up in a cave on the mountainside.
