Arminda

Arminda is a modern name for girls that stems from Germanic origins. It is a variant of Armida and Armide, which come from the root Heriman and mean “warrior” or “fighter.” Arminda may be chosen out of appreciation for Jerusalem Delivered, an epic poem composed by the 16th-century poet Torquato Tasso. The author places the spotlight on the name Armida, borne by a powerful sorceress who falls in love with the knight Rinaldo. If you love reading poetry, a lyrical name like Arminda is a great way to subtly pass on your passion. To make it shorter and even more special, Armi and Mindy make great nicknames.
