In the Russian language, "Аби́д", or its form "Ави́д", is an old and uncommon male given name. Included into various, often handwritten, church calendars throughout the 17th–19th centuries, it was omitted from the official Synodal Menologium at the end of the 19th century. Its origins are either Arabic or Aramaic. The diminutive of "Avid" is Avidka. The patronymics derived from "Avid" are "Ави́дович" and "Ави́довна".
