ArchivesHelp with a few first names
I am trying to find the meaning, history, etc. of a few names I am considering for my daughter based on how they sound. I dont know if it good manners on this board to ask about more than one name, but the names I am considering and the information I have about them so far, are:
Asaria (Arabic surname perhaps?)
Miana
Nirala
Nirina (African - the desired one?)
Ryiah
Taia (Vietnamese?)
Any help appreciated! (And if it is in poor taste to post re more than one message I will re-post!) Thank you!

Difficult to say what other cultures might use a name, and without pronounciation, I am not even sure it is on mark. But there is a north Indian boys' name nirAlA, which evolved from nirAlaYa meaning a place free of habitation, empty (i.e. free of crowds), quiet, peaceful, or, by extension, beautiful.

Nope! Don't post them all separately, it will only clutter up the board and make people cross! :-) They're fairly unusual names so it may be that no-one can say what the meanings are, in which case you will get only a few responses.
