Chiarra Origin and Meaning

Chiarra is a feminine name representing an alternative spelling of the Italian name Chiara, which derives from the Latin 'clara' meaning 'bright,' 'clear,' or 'famous.' The double 'r' gives this variation a distinctive appearance while maintaining the melodic pronunciation. In Italian culture, the name gained significance through Saint Clare (Chiara) of Assisi, a follower of Saint Francis who founded the Order of Poor Ladies.

The name carries connotations of light, clarity, and radiance, making it both meaningful and aesthetically pleasing across multiple cultures.
