Meaning & Origin

A county of Hotan prefecture, Xinjiang autonomous region, China.

Qira is a girl's baby name of American origin, a creative variant of Kyra or Kira — from the Greek kyrios meaning 'lady' or 'throne,' or from the Persian Kira meaning 'sun.' The Q- spelling gives this widely-traveled name a completely distinctive visual identity.

Qira is exceedingly rare — perhaps one of the most unusual spellings of the Kira/Kyra sound family. For parents who want the beloved two-syllable sound but a spelling that no other child at school will have.
