Meaning of the name Ghada
Ghada means a tender, graceful young woman with a supple figure. Al-Jawhari puts it on the same footing as ghaydaʾ and explains it by ghayad, the softness and suppleness of the neck and waist that give the gait a swaying grace (root gh-y-d). It is a classic name of the Middle East and the Gulf, widely borne in Syria, Egypt, Iraq and Saudi Arabia.
