Diarra

Meaning of Diarra

Bright and bold, Diarra traces its roots to West Africa, where it carried weight as the name of an ancient Mande kingdom. In French, it’s pronounced dee-AH-rah, rolling off the tongue with a musical lilt that’s at once exotic and at home in English conversation. Unisex by nature, it’s carving out a gentle groove among American parents, with ten little Diarras born in 2024 (ranking 940th). The name dances between continents—evoking sunlit savannas and a whisper of regal history—yet slots smoothly into everyday life, from sandbox adventures to family celebrations. With its melodic trio of syllables and a touch of royal strength, Diarra offers families a fresh, worldly choice that feels richly storied and effortlessly cool.
