- Alethea Charlton (1931–1976), British actress
- Alethea Hayter OBE (1911–2006), English author and British Council Representative
- Alethea Howard, Countess of Arundel (1585–1654), the wife of Thomas Howard, 21st Earl of Arundel

English: a learned coinage, not found before the 17th century. It represents the Greek word alētheia truth, and seems to have arisen as a result of the Puritan enthusiasm for using terms for abstract virtues as female names. See also Althea.
