Mira 1

It's my name and I like it! It's short for Mirabelle, but I've found that it's very hard for people to figure out, so it's much easier if I just go by Mira. It is challenging because the name means look or sight in Spanish, and I have several Spanish speaking friends who are confused by it.

It's pretty.

A charming name, and the meaning is quite pleasant.

Not a fan! I would absolutely hate being stuck with this name!

Mira is a beautiful name and the meaning 'sea, ocean' is perfect. It might be nice as a short form of Miranda or Mirabelle/a; I tend to like names with more variety for when a girl is older. I think for twins, Mira and Flora would go well together, since they have similar qualities and equally beautiful meanings. Then their middle names could be…
• Flora Pearl
• Mira Jasmine
• Flora Daisy
• Mira Elanor
• Flora Elizabeth
• Mira Isabelle/a
Etc, etc, etc.

I thought it was a short form of Miranda at first, and still liked it, but now that I know it means sea and ocean, I love it. It is much better then the very common Mia and I prefer it to Maria.

I love this name. It's short, delicate and beautiful, like Flora. Ironically, it sounds watery for me! I would love to call my future daughter Mira, but I live on a Portuguese-speaking country, and 'Mira' is a word for 'sight'. So I'd be naming her Sight instead of 'sea'... :(

I wonder if Mira is related to the Latin "mare", also meaning "sea". Sanskrit and Latin are Indo-European languages, so I feel it's likely.

The name Mira is short, simple, and pretty. I imagine this as the name of an artist.

I really like this name! It's sweet and pretty. :)

My name is Mira and I have always loved it. The only bad thing about it is that it is pronounced "Mee-rah", but I always get called "My-ruh".
