Help with name origin?
While researching my family tree I have found a family of travelers who are relations. Their christian names are unusual and I wondered if anyone knew the country or area of origin. I would guess Romany but can find no details on usual search engines.

Madia Name Meaning and History
Southern Italian: from a short form of the female personal name Amadio (see Amedeo). Stressed Màdia (as opposed to Madìa) it is probably from a Apulian personal name, Màdia, popularized by the cult of Maria Santissima della Màdia.

Kezia
Biblical: name of one of Job’s daughters, born to him towards the end of his life, after his prosperity had been restored (Job 42: 14). It represents the Hebrew word for the cassia tree (named in English, via Latin and Greek, from a similar Semitic source). The name is used in the English-speaking world rather less frequently than Jemima, but considerably more so than Keren-happuch, the name of Job’s third daughter (see Kerena). Pet forms: Kizzie, Kizzy.

Matilda
Latinized form of a Germanic personal name composed of the elements maht, meht might + hild battle. This was the name of an early German queen (895–968), wife of Henry the Fowler, who was noted for her piety and generosity. It was also the name of the wife of William the Conqueror and of the daughter of Henry I of England (see Maud). The name was introduced into England by the Normans, and this Latinized form is the one that normally occurs in medieval records, although the vernacular form Maud seems to have been the one in everyday use. Matilda was revived in England as a learned form in the 18th century. Variant: Mathilda.
Cognates: French: Mathilde. Spanish, Portuguese: Matilde. Portuguese, Italian: Mafalda. German: Mechtilde. Low German: Mette. Polish, Czech: Matylda.
Short forms: English: Tilda. Swedish: Tilda. Danish: Tilde.
Pet forms: English: Mattie;Tilly, Tillie.

Adding those last three names may have been helpful. Many surnames at one time were given names so when we are looking for names that we think have origins in olders limes, possibly before surnames were used, it is always good to check in the surname definitions as well. When I did this for Madia, I found that the surname came from a Southern Italian personal name going back as far as the middle ages. The other two names have interesting histories as well.
