Vira

Meaning of Vira

Vira, pronounced VEER-ah (/vɪərə/), feels like a fresh breeze through classic charm—at once familiar and invigorating. Stemming from the Slavic tradition where it’s a spirited twist on Vera, meaning “faith” or “truth,” Vira also whispers of ancient Sanskrit roots—vira, the hero’s courageous heart—imbuing the name with quiet bravery. It’s the sort of moniker that dances easily between playgrounds and boardrooms, carrying both warmth and strength. In the U.S., just over a dozen little Viras enter the world each year, earning it a sweet spot at number 937 in 2024—a rarity that still feels approachable. For parents who crave a name that’s rich in meaning, a touch exotic yet unmistakably Anglo-American in flow, Vira strikes the perfect balance: bold without being bold-faced and timeless without ever feeling old hat.
