Hertha Meaning
Form of Nerthus. The spelling change from N to H resulted from a misreading of Tacitus's text. Hertha probably originates in Old Norse language and means "powerful woman". It is most likely another name for Nerthus, a fertility goddess in Germanic paganism. Some sources suggest, though, that it might be derived from an Old English name which means "Earth".
