I am Swedish and this is my name, so I was surprised by the international meaning "peace". The name Frida is an Old Norse name meaning "the beautiful" and "the beloved", at least in Scandinavia. :) [noted -ed]

This is my name. While I wouldn't name my own daughter this, I kind of like it. It's traditional and Germanic, not too harsh or too soft, and sounds like peace (frid) and freedom. It also reminds me of the color yellow, for some reason.

My first thought seeing this name is Frida Kahlo, and that it sounds a bit like "freedom"— both good associations! I can easily see this name coming back in style. I wouldn't personally use it for a child because it doesn't sound as pretty in French, but if you're considering this and it sounds good in your language, I say go for it! I personally gave it to a character in the novel I'm writing.

My first name is Frida, and I guess I like it enough. But I'm not sure of the origin - one theory is the one Caprice posted, the other is that it is from the word "frid" meaning "peace".
(I'm Swedish, and frid in Swedish means peace, as in peace of mind.)
FairyGirl - ouch. I was bullied from ten to thirteen years of age because of that.

I love this name! It probably has a lot to do with my love for Anni-Frid "Frida" Lyngstad of ABBA. For months, I wanted to name a daughter Frida, or use it as a middle, but, for some reason, it slipped off of my list. I think I'd still quite happily use it, but as a middle, which is an issue as it's hard to find first names that fit.

I think I've got an great grandmother with this name. My father says it all the time, for no reason, i.e. "What's for dinner?" "Frida." or "I'm going to go watch the Frida now," not to mention calling everyone in the family "Frida." So, I don't think I can ever use it, or hear it, without laughing.

It sounds hopelessly old-fashioned and grandmotherly. It makes me think of rather kooky and unattractive old women, too.
