What is the meaning of the name Naara ?

The baby name Naara is a Female name , 3 syllables long and is pronounced Hebrew: na-AH-rah (na-a-ra); Anglicized: NAH-rah.

Naara is Hebrew in Origin.

Naara is a feminine given name from Hebrew na'arah (נערה), meaning "young woman" or "maiden." It appears in the Hebrew Bible both as a personal name - Naarah, one of Ashhur’s wives (1 Chronicles 4:5) - and as a related place-name, Naarath, on tribal borders (Joshua 16:7). The underlying root na'ar denotes youth, giving the name a straightforward sense of freshness and girlhood.

Used in Jewish and Christian communities via scripture, the name has seen modern revival beyond the Levant, especially in Lusophone countries. Common variants and spellings include Na'arah, Naarah, Naara, and the Portuguese-accented Naára; a shortened form Nara sometimes occurs but also has distinct Japanese origins. Related Hebrew choices with different roots include Naamah and Noam. Parents may be drawn to Naara for its concise sound, biblical resonance, and positive, youthful meaning.
