Globally, Amida (Amida , Амида , اميدا ) is a common dominantly female, but seldom masculine forename. The given name Amida is habitual in Sub-Saharan Africa, particularly Tanzania, where it is quite a common feminine name, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, where it is quite a rare feminine name, and Ethiopia, where it is a rare unisex name. Measured by absolute frequency, it most frequently occurs in Tanzania, India, and Nigeria. Much less frequently, Amida is the last name as well as the forename.
