What is the meaning of the name Hiral ?

The baby name Hiral is a Female name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced ˈhiːrəl (HEE-ruhl).

Hiral is Gujarati, Sanskrit in Origin.

Hiral is an Indian given name of Gujarati and Hindi usage, derived from the Indo-Aryan word hira “diamond,” ultimately from Sanskrit hiraka. The adjectival ending -al gives the sense “diamond-like,” hence “lustrous, precious,” and by extension “prosperous/wealthy.” It is used for all genders but is most common for girls.

The name gained regular use in western India - especially Gujarat - and among Jain and Hindu families in the mid-20th century, later spreading with the Gujarati diaspora to East Africa, the United Kingdom, and North America. Common variants and spellings include Heeral, Hiraal, and Heeral; related forms are Hira/Heera and the Sanskritic Hiranya (“golden”). In Gujarati social address, adult women may be called Hiralben (with the respectful suffix -ben), though the core given name remains Hiral. The name carries connotations of brilliance, value, and auspicious prosperity.
