Origin and meaning of Dimitra

Dimitra is a Greek girls' name derived directly from Demeter (Dēmḗtēr), the Greek goddess of grain, the cultivated earth and fertility; its traditional sense is 'devoted to Demeter' or 'of the mother earth.' Widespread in Greece, the name celebrates an ancestral bond with nature and the harvest. Often shortened to Dímitra or Mími, it remains firmly rooted in Hellenic culture and little used elsewhere.
