Sarria is Hebrew, Spanish in Origin.

Sarria is a toponymic given name from the Iberian Peninsula, taken from several places called Sarria (Galicia) or Sarrià (Catalonia). In Galicia, the toponym matches a local river name likely of pre-Roman, possibly Celtic, origin, linked to the idea of flowing water. The Catalan Sarrià continues Latin Serriānus/Seriānus, “the estate of Serrius/Serius.” Long established as a surname - attested in medieval charters and borne by figures like activist José Sarria - it has only recently been adopted as a first name, especially among Spanish- and Catalan-speaking families and by pilgrims on the Camino de Santiago, which passes through Sarria in Lugo.

Variants include Sarrià (Catalan), Sarriá (Spanish form of the Catalan name), and the less common Sarría; Sarria is the standard Galician/Spanish spelling. The name is usually feminine today but can be unisex. Its sense is “from Sarria” or “of the Sarrià estate,” evoking heritage, travel, and rivers.
