Meaning & History
Derived from the Russian noun идея (ideya) meaning "idea, thought, notion". This name was created by Communist parents who were eager to reject traditional names, possibly in reference to the word идеология (ideologiya) meaning "ideology" or to communist ideas, concepts or ideals in general.A known bearer of this name was the Russian animated film director and screenwriter Ideya "Ida" Garanina (1937-2010).
