Editha

According to Old English, the meaning of Editha is 'prosperous in war', but 'strife for wealth' is also considered by many as a plausible translation. Editha is mostly used as a name for females. The name was popular until the early 2000s but has seen a decline since then. The name Editha is very similar to the name Edith. Edith means 'riches, or blessed' in Old English, and most other translations generally tend to include 'rich', 'war', and 'fortune'. Though the popularity of the name has decreased, there have been many well-known personalities with the name, such as Editha von Rahden, a Baltic-German author, philanthropist, and lady-in-waiting to Empress Maria Fedorovna and the Grand Duchess Helena Pawlovna, and the german politician Editha Westmann, member of the Christian Democratic Union of Germany. There is a famous short story titled 'Editha', written by American novelist and literary critic William Dean Howells. The story is about a woman, Editha, who tries to convince her lover George Gearson to fight in the Spanish-American war to raise their social status, and the plot is focused on George's choice. It is believed that people named Editha tend to be focused, diplomatic, intuitive, and stable.

Lucky

Editha lucky number is 2.

Within numerology, the 2 vibration assumes the role of the mediator, creating harmony by bringing together dissonant forces through compassion, empathy, and kindness. 2 is linked to psychic abilities and intuition, and if this number appears as a Life Path or Destiny Number, the individual will be astute to subtle energy shifts and emotional nuances. Because 2 is so sensitive, it is very conflict-averse, and can end up feeling under-appreciated or unacknowledged. 2 must avoid seeking external validation and, instead, realize that perfect equilibrium needed already exists within.
