History & Origin

Feyra is a recent coinage with no long documented history. Most U.S. families meet it through Feyre, the lead of the ACOTAR fantasy novels, and the spelling Feyra softens it into a more conventional name shape; others hear Fey ('fairy') plus -ra, or a cousin of Freya. Routes are uncertain, which we note (said 'FAY-rah').

It appears only rarely in U.S. records. Rare, fantasy-flavored, and new.
