Aaria is a modern feminine name rooted in Italian and Latin musical traditions, crafted as a distinctive variant of Aria—literally “air” or “song.” Pronounced uh-REE-uh (IPA: /əˈriə/) in English, it offers a clear, lyrical sound that appeals to parents drawn to classical inspiration. The name first entered the U.S. top 1,000 in 2001, climbed to its highest rank of 888 with 56 recorded births in 2019, and as of 2024 appears at rank 927 with 23 newborns. Its double-a spelling reflects contemporary trends in creative respellings of familiar names, while its ties to opera and Latin heritage lend it both cultural depth and a growing, refined presence.
