Cira

Meaning of Cira

Cira, pronounced CHEE-rah, is a melodic Italian treasure with sun-lit roots—she’s the feminine flourish of Ciro, itself tracing back to the ancient Persian word for “sun.” With fewer than a dozen newborns named Cira each year in the U.S. and a gentle climb into the 900s on popularity charts, this name feels like a hidden gem waiting to be discovered. It’s warm yet unexpected, rolling off the tongue like a soft sunset glow, and easy enough that friends won’t stumble over it but curious enough to spark questions about its origin. For parents seeking a name that blends old-world charm with contemporary freshness, Cira offers a radiant balance—one that promises to stand out in any playground without ever feeling too flashy.
