Chiara

Chiara is a girl's baby name of Italian origin, the Italian form of Clara, from Latin clarus, meaning 'bright' or 'clear, luminous.'

Saint Chiara of Assisi — known in English as Clare — was the 13th-century founder of the Order of Poor Ladies and a close companion of Saint Francis. In Italy, Chiara has consistently ranked among the most popular girls' names for decades. In the U.S., it's appreciated by Italian-heritage families and those drawn to its clean, radiant sound.
