Nayra
Nayra Origin and Meaning
Nayra is a feminine name with diverse cultural origins. In Arabic traditions, it means 'luminous' or 'bright eye,' while in Sanskrit it can represent 'eyes' or 'vision.' The name also appears in some Native American cultures with meanings related to 'big eyes' or 'observant one.' With its melodious sound and exotic feel, Nayra has gained modest popularity in the United States in recent decades as parents increasingly look beyond traditional Western names. The name carries a sense of beauty and perception across its various cultural contexts. Its relatively rare status makes it appealing to parents seeking distinctive names that still sound feminine and graceful. Nayra represents the growing trend toward multicultural names that work well internationally while maintaining a specific cultural heritage.
