Origin and etymology of the name

Scholarly onomastic and linguistic analysis
Linguistic explanation and meaning

A Hebrew feminine name originally meaning 'woman of Judea' or 'Jewish woman'.

Detailed Slovak etymology analysis

Meno pochádza z hebrejského mena Jehudit (יְהוּדִית), ženského tvaru pomenovania odvodeného od mena Jehuda (Júda). Jeho pôvodný význam je „Júdejčanka“, „žena z Júdska“ alebo „Židovka“. Výklady „chválená“ či „oslavujúca Boha“ sú iba druhotné a súvisia s tradičným výkladom mena Jehuda. V deuterokánonickej Knihe Judita je Judita odvážna vdova, ktorá zachráni svoje mesto pred vojskom asýrskeho veliteľa Holoferna.
