Cirra is Greek, Persian, Spanish in Origin.
Cirra is a rare modern feminine name with several plausible roots. Many see it as an elaboration of Cira/Cyra, ultimately linked to Cyrus (Greek Kyros from Old Persian Kurush), commonly glossed as "sun," "throne," or "lord." Its spelling also recalls Latin cirrus "curl," origin of the cloud term, giving the name a light, skyward feel. The Greek place-name Kirrha/Cirrha lends additional classical color, though Cirra itself is little attested historically.
Use appears mainly from the late 20th century in Anglophone countries and remains uncommon. Variants and relatives include Cira, Cyra, Cirrah, Kirra/Kirrha, and Sira; Ciri works as a nickname. Pronounced SEER-uh (also KEER-uh regionally), Cirra sits between Sierra and Kira in style while retaining Persian and classical echoes. It fits contemporary trends favoring nature-tinged, liquid, two-syllable names.
