Jurate, of Baltic origin, is a beautiful and unique female given name. It is derived from the Lithuanian word "jura," which means "sea." This moniker is quite popular in Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia, where it signifies deep admiration for the sea's power and vastness. Jurate is pronounced as "Yooh-rah-teh," with a soft 'y' sound similar to 'u' in "flute" followed by 'rah,' as in 'father,' and ending with 'teh.' It has been translated into English as names such as Yurate or Jurate, but the original pronunciation is often preferred. In some cases, Jurate may also be spelled with a 'y' instead of a 'j,' reflecting its Baltic origins more closely. This name has gained international recognition due to its unique sound and meaning, appealing to parents seeking a distinctive and meaningful name for their daughters.
No babies named Jurate were born after 1951.
