Sayareh is Persian in Origin.

Sayareh (pronounced sah-yah-REH) is a Persian feminine name drawn from the noun سیاره (seyyāre/sayyāreh), the standard Persian term for “planet.” The word itself was borrowed from Arabic sayyār, “wandering, itinerant,” reflecting the ancient idea of planets as wandering stars. As a given name, Sayareh carries celestial overtones of motion, orbit, brilliance, and exploration. Note that in Arabic, sayyāra now means “automobile,” a separate development unrelated to the Persian personal name.

Used in Iran and Persian-speaking communities since the mid-20th century, Sayareh fits the modern Iranian taste for luminous, sky-themed names alongside Setareh (“star”) and Mahtab (“moonlight”). It remains uncommon yet familiar. Variant transliterations include Sayyareh, Seyyareh, Sayare, Seyare, and Seyaareh; related regional forms sometimes appear as Sayyare. Across spellings, the meaning stays constant: “planet; wandering celestial body.”
