Sharaya feels like a breath of fresh air on a spring morning: a modern spin on the classic Hebrew name Sarah (“princess”) fused with the gentle Hebrew element Aya (“to fly swiftly” or “bird”), so that together she can be imagined as a “princess who soars.” Pronounced shuh-RAY-uh, it sparkles with both elegance and a playful lilt, making each girl who bears it feel at once grounded and free-spirited. Though it’s never crowded the top ranks—roughly half a dozen newborns a year in the U.S. earn the name, keeping it comfortably inside the top 1,000—it’s precisely that rarity that gives Sharaya her quiet power. Warmhearted and adventurous by nature, a Sharaya often lights up a room with thoughtful curiosity, proving that a name this lyrical can inspire big dreams.
