Mirranda Origin and Meaning

The name Mirranda is a girl's name.

Mirranda is a feminine name that represents a spelling variation of the more common Miranda. The original name Miranda was coined by Shakespeare for his play "The Tempest" (1611), derived from Latin "mirandus" meaning "worthy of admiration," "wonderful," or "marvelous." The double-r spelling emerged likely in the late 20th century as parents sought distinctive variations of traditional names. While much less common than the standard spelling, Mirranda offers the same beautiful meaning and literary connection with a subtle twist. The name carries connotations of wonder and beauty, reflecting its Latin origins. Miranda (and by extension Mirranda) saw peaks in popularity following the 1980s, influenced by the character in "Sex and the City" and maintains associations with intelligence, independence, and artistic sensibility.
