Safire Origin and Meaning
The name Safire is a girl's name.
Safire is a feminine name that appears to be a variant spelling of 'Sapphire,' the precious blue gemstone. The name comes from Greek 'sappheiros' and Hebrew 'sappir,' both referring to the blue gem associated with wisdom, loyalty, and purity. This alternative spelling gives the name a more distinctive and modern feel while maintaining its connection to the gemstone's qualities. Safire has never been widely common but appeals to parents seeking a precious stone name with a unique twist. The name carries connotations of beauty, rarity, and resilience, making it an attractive choice for those who want a name that feels both distinctive and meaningful.
