Kyrah Origin and Meaning

The name Kyrah is a girl's name.

Kyrah is a feminine name with multiple possible origins. It may be a modern variant of Kira or Kyra, which have Slavic, Persian, and Greek connections meaning 'throne,' 'sun,' or 'lord.' The added 'h' gives the name a distinctive spelling while maintaining the melodic pronunciation. Kyrah could also be considered a feminine form of Cyrus, an ancient Persian name meaning 'far-sighted' or 'young.' The name gained modest popularity in the late 1990s and early 2000s, particularly in North America, aligning with the trend toward names with the 'K' sound and creative spellings. Kyrah carries connotations of strength and leadership, offering a contemporary yet substantial option for parents seeking a name with both modern appeal and historical depth.
