Frida is a Germanic name meaning "peace," with roots in Old High German *frid*. Beloved across Scandinavia and German-speaking Europe for centuries, the name gained worldwide recognition through Mexican painter Frida Kahlo, whose bold artistry and indomitable spirit made the name synonymous with creativity and resilience.
