Alaria

Meaning of Alaria

Alaria, pronounced uh-LAR-ee-uh, unfurls like a soft Latin whisper, born from the word ala, “wing,” and carrying with it the promise of open skies and fearless flight. In sun-drenched plazas of ancient Rome, one can almost imagine a young poet coining this name for a muse who dances on the breeze—and today it still conjures images of guardian angels and wanderlust hearts. Though delightfully rare—only six to twelve little Alar­ias have made their debut most years since the late 1990s—it gently flits in and out of the U.S. top 1,000 (most recently landing around #938 in 2024). Warm and lyrical, with just a touch of whimsy, Alaria is perfect for a child destined to spread her wings—albeit after breakfast, of course—soaring onward with courage and grace.
