History & Origin
Demitria is a variant of Demetria, the feminine form of the Greek Demetrios, 'follower of Demeter'. Demeter presides over grain, agriculture and the fertile earth in Greek myth, and her name has produced Demetria, Demetrius and Dimitri. The Demitria spelling is a phonetic American take.
It was a rare late-century choice, most visible around 1992 and easing back after. A Demitria today is likely a Gen-Xer or younger; the spelling is uncommon while Demetria and Dmitri keep the classical name alive, and the nickname Demi feels current.
