Terrah Origin and Meaning

The name Terrah is a girl's name.

Terrah is a feminine name that represents an alternative spelling of Terra, which comes from the Latin word for 'earth' or 'land.' This variant spelling with the added 'h' gives the name a more distinctive appearance while maintaining the same pronunciation. While the traditional Terra has connections to Roman mythology as the goddess of the earth, Terrah offers a more contemporary feel. The name has never been extremely popular but saw modest usage in the United States during the 1970s and 1980s. Terrah appeals to parents seeking a name with natural symbolism and environmental connections. The earthy meaning resonates with nature-loving families, while the unique spelling provides a subtle way to personalize this ancient concept.
