Viara

Meaning of Viara

Viara glides off the tongue as vee-AH-rah, and, true to her Bulgarian roots, she carries the meaning of “faith” straight from the word вяра. She’s the sort of name that feels both vintage and fresh—like a familiar melody played on a brand-new violin. In the United States she’s a hidden gem (fewer than ten little Viaras have arrived in any recent year), so parents can imagine their daughter answering to a name that’s rare enough to earn double-takes yet simple enough for classmates to remember. Viara shares Slavic DNA with cousins Vera and Viera, but her extra syllable adds a hint of musical flair, turning a sturdy virtue name into something softly lyrical. She fits as comfortably on a scientist’s badge as on a novelist’s dust jacket, and her built-in nickname “Via” practically invites adventures. If Mom and Dad are dreaming of a name that whispers faith, sparkles with originality, and won’t be lost in the crowd at kindergarten roll call, Viara makes a persuasive case.
