Hagarah is Hebrew in Origin.

Hagarah is a rare feminine given name built on the biblical/Arabic name Hagar/Hajar, with the -ah ending reflecting common Hebrew and transliteration conventions. In Hebrew, Hagar is often parsed as ha-gēr, “the sojourner/stranger,” while in Arabic Hājar relates to the root hjr, “to leave, migrate,” yielding senses of journeying, separation, and determined movement. The combined meanings suggest “sojourner,” “emigrant,” or “one who journeys with purpose.”

Usage centers on the matriarch Hagar, servant of Sarah and mother of Ishmael, honored across Judaism, Christianity, and especially Islam, where her perseverance is commemorated in the Sa‘i between Safa and Marwa. English-speaking records show intermittent use of Hagar since the early modern era; in Muslim-majority and South Asian contexts, Hajar and Hajra are enduringly popular. Hagarah surfaces as a modern elaboration or phonetic spelling in diaspora communities. Related forms include Hagar, Hajar, Haajar, Hajra, and Hajarah; nicknames are uncommon.
