The baby name Narah is a Female name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced NAH-rah (IPA: /ˈnɑːrə/).
Narah is Hebrew in Origin.
Narah blends ancient Hebrew roots with modern styling. In Hebrew it corresponds to Na‘arah (נערה), meaning young woman or maiden, found in the Bible as Naarah, a wife of Ashhur (1 Chronicles 4:5). The streamlined single‑a spelling and final h follow anglophone patterns seen in Sarah and Norah, positioning Narah as a contemporary variant with biblical resonance. Modest revival has appeared in Jewish and English‑speaking communities.
Variants include Naarah, Naara, Na‘arah, and the shorter Nara. In other languages, Nara carries separate associations: in Japanese it can reference the historic city or be written with kanji giving different nuances; in Korean nara means “country” and appears in given names. Thus Narah chiefly conveys the Hebrew sense of maiden while echoing wider global usage through its Nara form.
