Esraa

Meaning of Esraa

Esraa is a warm and spirited Arabic name (pronounced es-RAH) that literally means “night journey,” conjuring star-lit adventures and soulful quests. With roots in the legendary Isra of Islamic tradition, it carries whispers of a miraculous voyage under moonlit skies—and a promise of discovery that echoes with every heartbeat. Though it’s still rare stateside, Esraa has been steadily charting the top 1000 in the US (hovering around rank 940 in recent years), a sign that families are embracing its timeless charm. Its gentle consonant roll and lyrical rhythm fit right into today’s multicultural tapestry, like a flamenco melody drifting on an Andalusian breeze. Its soft syllables invite courage, wonder, and a dash of midnight magic—perfect for a little girl whose story is just beginning, and who might already be planning her first stargazing party before she even learns to crawl.
