Globally, Papada (ปภาดา , Papada , Pappus ) is quite a common largely girly, but seldom male given name. The first name Papada is characteristic of Thailand, where it is quite a rare dominantly female, but infrequently boy's name, and India, where it is an extremely rare epicene name. Very seldom, Papada is the last name as well as the forename.
Papada is also a name for the fictitious and mythical characters: Pappus , the character in Atellan Farce.
