Origin: Hebrew

Meaning: Woman from Magdala

Mada is a unique girl's name of Hebrew origin, and a modern variation of Magdalene. Meaning "woman from Magdala," it's rooted in the Christian Bible's Mary Magdalene, a saint and companion to Jesus. This short and sweet name was quite popular during the late 1900s and is definitely in need of a comeback. If Mada doesn't start the butterflies in your tummy, try out Magda, Madelina Magdaline.
