Hermia is a girl's name of Greek origin. Meaning "messenger," it comes from the same roots as Hermes, the Greek messenger god, but the name is probably most familiar from Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream. In the play, Hermia is strong and confident, knowing exactly who and what she wants. Your little Hermia can follow her lead and stride boldly into life, proudly standing on their own two feet.
