Damara

Meaning of Damara

Damara, deriving from the ancient Greek verb damazō (“to tame” or “subdue”), traditionally conveys the notion of a “gentle maiden” and embodies a fusion of tempered strength and measured restraint. United States Social Security Administration figures document its modest yet consistent adoption: occurrences reached forty-eight in 2004 (ranked 895th) and totaled thirteen in 2023 (ranked 945th), illustrating a fluctuating but durable presence. The English pronunciation /dəˈmɑrə/ conforms to Anglo-American phonological standards, ensuring intelligibility while retaining a distinctive prosodic profile. From an analytical standpoint, Damara’s reserved frequency and classical resonance render it an appealing choice for parents seeking a feminine name that harmonizes Hellenic heritage with contemporary individuality.
