IDA is a female given name, short and old-fashioned, from Germanic roots meaning "work" or "labor." It peaked in popularity in the late 1800s and early 1900s: Ida was my great-grandmother's name.
The name appears in the song "Ida!
Sweet as Apple Cider." In technical contexts, IDA may be an acronym for various organizations or software tools.
