Swara

Meaning of Swara

Swara is a feminine given name of Sanskrit derivation, denoting a musical note or sound element within Indian classical theory. Pronounced SWAH-ruh (/swɑːrə/), it carries technical associations with tonal precision and auditory expression. In the United States, Swara first appeared in the Social Security Administration’s top 1,000 names in 2007 and has since maintained a rank between 864 and 978, currently standing at 911 with 39 registrations in 2024. Its adoption curve has been gradual rather than exponential, reflecting a sustained niche interest among parents who favor names that integrate Eastern linguistic roots with data-driven Western trends.
