ArchivesInara
I was editing the entries for Inara and found out that the name is used in many different languages (https://www.behindthename.com/name/inara/submitted):
Inara (1): Azerbaijani. Anglicised form of İnarə.
Inara (2)*: English, possibly Arabic. Variant of Inaara.
Inara (3): Brazilian Portuguese. Possibly an elaboration of Ina.
Inara (4): goddess in Hittite Mythology.
Inara (5)*: Russian, Altai, Kazakh. Meaning unknown.
Inara (6)*: Macedonian. Meaning unknown.
Inara (7): Basque, Spanish. Either related to Enara or Inar.
Inara (8): Lithuanian, Estonian, Finnish. Possible borrowing of Ināra.
Inara (9): Finnish, Swedish, Norwegian. Variant of Inari.
Does anyone know if Inara (1) and Inara (5) are identical entries, i.e. it's both an Anglicised form of İnarə used in Azerbaijan as well as the Russian and Kazakh form? As for Inara (6), is it a different Slavic name? Or is it related to the aforementioned one? Lastly, is Inara (2) (and Inaara) really used in Arabic?
By the way, it's also found in French (https://meilleursprenoms.com/popularite-prenom/Inara) and Dutch (https://nvb.meertens.knaw.nl/naam/is/Inara), but how should these two be categorised?
Thanks a lot in advance!
