What is the meaning of the name Seffira ?

The baby name Seffira is a Female name , 3 syllables long and is pronounced seh-FEER-ah (IPA: /sɛˈfɪrə/).

Seffira is Greek in Origin.

Seffira is a modern, stylistic variant of Sapphira/Sephira. Its roots point to Hebrew sappir and Greek sappheiros, sources of the word "sapphire," and to Hebrew sefirah, the Kabbalistic term for a divine "emanation" and the "counting" of the Omer. As a given name, it conveys jewel-tone imagery, suggesting purity, depth, and value, alongside a contemplative, spiritual nuance.

Use of related forms spans centuries. Sapphira appears in the New Testament, which gave the gem-name early Christian visibility, while Safira thrives in Portuguese and Indonesian as the local form of "sapphire." Contemporary naming fashions have welcomed fresh spellings; Seffira fits this trend with a softened, lyrical feel. Common variants include Sapphira, Saphira, Sephira, Sefira, Safira, and Sapphire; cognates and relatives include Hebrew Sapir. Overall meaning clusters around "sapphire; precious blue stone" and, in Jewish tradition, "emanation" or "counting."
