What is the meaning of the name Seira ?

The baby name Seira is a Female name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced English: /ˈseɪrə/ (SAY-rah); Japanese: [se.i.ra] or /seːɾa/ (seh-ee-rah).

Seira is Japanese in Origin.

Seira is a multicultural feminine given name pronounced SAY-rah/SEH-rah. In Japan, it functions as a modern name whose meaning depends on the kanji: 星羅 “star array,” 聖来 “holy arrival,” 清良 “pure and good,” among others; it is also frequently written in katakana (セイラ). Its rise dates to the late 20th century, helped by pop culture and the fashion for light, vowel-rich names.

Outside Japan, Seira can be a stylistic spelling of Sarah/Sara (Hebrew origin, “princess”), or converge with South Asian/Arabic Saira (“traveler”). A more scholarly echo is the Ancient Greek noun seira “rope/chain,” though personal-name use is rare. Variants and relatives include Sara, Sarah, Sera, Saira, Sayra, and the Japanese forms noted above. Seira suits families seeking an international name with multiple positive readings and a sleek, contemporary sound.
