Neria

Meaning of Neria

In a single breath, Neria—pronounced NEER-ee-uh (/nɛirˈiə/)—sparkles like dawn over a coastal fiesta, weaving together ancient Hebrew roots (meaning “my lamp of God”) with the warm, sultry rhythm of Latin nights. This name pulses with the glow of prayer and the carefree energy of salsa steps under string lights, perfect for parents who dream of a moniker that feels equally sacred and celebratory. Though only a handful of little Neria’s appear in U.S. birth records each year—peaking at thirteen in 2013, dipping to six in 2014, then back up to eight in 2015—and hovering around the mid-900s in national rank, each one carries the quiet power of light in the world. Imagine a girl named Neria skipping through life, her smile as bright as her name suggests (sunglasses not required but strongly encouraged), leaving a trail of hope and joy in her wake.
