Meaning and history
Merideth is an English spelling variant of Meredith. Meredith comes from the Welsh masculine name Maredudd, whose exact etymology is uncertain; proposed elements have been connected with “great” or “splendid” and “lord,” but no interpretation is fully secure. The surname later became a given name for both sexes, especially feminine in the United States. Reliable prominent bearers using the exact spelling Merideth are limited; most familiar public figures use Meredith.
