For Yscaira, I came up with a few theories, but I don't really know what I'm talking about!
Through searching I saw that Iscaira, Iscaria and Yscaria are also in light use.
-A variation of Iscariot, as in Judas Iscariot.
-Based on an indigenous Latin American name.
-Iscar is a Portuguese verb meaning "to bait," "to hook," "to seduce," etc. Yscaira could mean "seductive."
