Sira is a unisex given name of Arabic origin, derived from the word 'sirr', which translates to 'secret' or 'mystery'. It gained prominence through its usage in Islamic literature and culture. Sira is also associated with the Spanish tradition, as it was popularized by the 19th-century novel 'Siraneta' by José María de Pereda.
"Sira experienced a significant rise in popularity between the years 2005 to 2009, with the number of annual births peaking at 12 during those years. However, it's interesting to note that there were no recorded births for this name in 1998 and 2000, despite having multiple births every other year. The total number of babies named Sira from 1997 to 2023 is 232."
