Dara

Dara is a thoughtful name derived from Hebrew, meaning 'pearl of wisdom'. It suggests a balance of beauty and intelligence, and though Dara is more commonly used for boys in some cultures, it has an appealing androgynous quality that makes it suitable for girls too. It's a name that hasn't reached peak popularity, making it a charming choice for parents seeking something distinct yet straightforward. While not tied to any famous women, its simplicity is its strength. Alternatives like Darina or Daria may also pique your interest.
