Jera

Meaning of Jera

Jera is a short and sweet name with ancient Norse roots, meaning “harvest” or “year,” and it paints a picture of golden fields and the promise of renewal. It feels right at home in India too, where its echo of “jeera” (cumin) adds a playful dash of spice and warmth. Though still rare in the United States—only six baby girls were named Jera in 2023—each little Jera shines like a precious bloom in a crowded garden. It’s a name that carries the rhythm of the seasons, inspiring thoughts of growth, abundance, and the joyful cycle of new beginnings.
