Dahrah Origin and Meaning

The name Dahrah is a girl's name.

Dahrah is a feminine name of uncertain origin, possibly a variant spelling of Dara (which has Persian, Hebrew, or Irish roots depending on etymology) or a creative modern formation. If connected to Persian Dara, it would carry meanings of 'wealthy' or 'possessor,' while a Hebrew connection might suggest 'pearl of wisdom.' The additional 'h' creates a distinctive spelling that emphasizes the second syllable and gives the name an exotic quality. This uncommon name has a melodic flow with its open vowel sounds and soft consonants. Dahrah remains extremely rare in English-speaking countries, making it appealing for parents seeking a name that sounds familiar yet is highly distinctive, with a vaguely Middle Eastern or mystical quality.
