Deyvid

Meaning of Deyvid

Deyvid is a masculine given name of Hebrew origin, deriving from the ancient Dāwīḏ and signifying “beloved,” whose historical prominence is anchored in the biblical reign of King David, renowned both as a unifier of tribes and as a psalmist whose contributions to liturgical poetry continue to resonate across Judeo-Christian traditions. This orthographic variant deliberately preserves the conventional English pronunciation /ˈdeɪvɪd/ while offering a distinctive graphic iteration, and in the Anglo-American context it encapsulates a deliberate balance between venerable etymology and contemporary individualization. After first entering the United States top 1,000 in 2007 with eight recorded births at rank 881, Deyvid has sustained sporadic yet gradually increasing visibility—registering five occurrences at rank 913 in both 2015 and 2020, seven at rank 922 in 2023, and reaching a peak of twelve at rank 912 in 2024—thereby evidencing a modest but discernible upward trajectory. Its continued albeit selective adoption suggests an appreciation for a name that retains historical gravitas and linguistic integrity while subtly distinguishing itself through its nontraditional spelling.
