Mirayah is Hebrew, Slavic, Spanish in Origin.
Mirayah is a modern feminine given name, most often interpreted as a creative variant of Mariah (from Maria/Miryam) or of Miraya, and as an elaboration of Mira + the fashionable -yah ending. Through Mariah, it links to Hebrew/possibly Egyptian roots via Miryam; through Miraya it touches Indian usage connected with the bhakti poet-saint Mirabai; it also resembles Arabic mir’āh/marāyā “mirror” and the multicultural name Mira.
Depending on the pathway chosen, meanings evoked include “beloved” or “wished‑for child” (common readings of Miryam), sometimes “bitter” or “rebellion”; “peace, world” (Slavic mir) or “wonder” (Latin mirari) via Mira; and associations with devotional love in the Mirabai tradition. Rare before the 2000s, Mirayah has surfaced in Anglophone baby name data as part of the rise of melodious, -yah ending names. Variant spellings: Miraya, Miriyah, Miryah, Marayah; related: Mariah, Mira, Myra, Meera.
