Candra

Meaning of Candra

Candra drifts into the world like a silver sliver of moonlight, her origins rooted in the ancient Sanskrit word chandra—“moon”—while a playful nod to the Latin candor gives her a glow of honesty and clarity. Imagine Candra as a young girl tracing constellations on her bedroom ceiling, her name a soft lullaby that carries the hush of twilight and the promise of new beginnings. Warm as candlelight and as poetic as a sonnet whispered under starry skies, Candra weaves together exotic charm and familiar comfort, inviting families to dream of moonlit picnics and bedtime stories spun with gentle humor. Though she remains delightfully rare—flitting quietly through Texas baby name lists—her luminous spirit leaves a lasting sparkle in every heart she meets.
