Aletha

Meaning of Aletha

Aletha (uh-LEE-thuh) carries the warm glow of an ancient Greek story—drawn from alētheia, the word for “truth”—giving it a quietly powerful edge that feels both genuine and graceful. In a world of fast-fashion names, Aletha stands out like a handcrafted treasure: just eight baby girls in the U.S. wore it last year, ranking it around the 940th spot, so it’s unlikely to be the neighborhood’s trendiest pick yet instantly memorable when you say it aloud. With its soft “uh” beginning and lilting “thuh” finish, it rolls right off the tongue, conjuring images of openhearted honesty and thoughtful strength. For parents seeking a name that whispers integrity, celebrates heritage, and feels like a secret waiting to be shared, Aletha is a beautifully rare choice.
