Amarra
Meaning of Amarra
Amarra is a feminine given name of composite etymology, most often considered a variant of Amara, whose roots trace to the Classical Greek ἀμάρᾰ (“grace”), the Sanskrit अमर (amara, “immortal”) and the Igbo term for “grace” in West African languages. In Anglo-American usage, it conveys both an enduring elegance and a quiet resilience, reflecting contemporary parents’ preference for names that bridge heritage and modernity. Its phonetic form—ah-MAH-ruh—remains consistent across American and British varieties of English, underscoring its transatlantic adaptability. Though its overall frequency in the United States hovers near the 900th rank, Amarra’s measured presence among newborns suggests a steady, if modest, appeal rooted in its scholarly resonance and multicultural associations.
