History & Origin

Hadarah comes from the Hebrew hadar, 'splendour, beauty, adornment,' a word carrying both physical beauty and dignity of bearing. As a girl's name it belongs to the modern Israeli revival of Hebrew word-names, alongside Hadar itself. In the U.S. it is used chiefly by Jewish families (said 'hah-dah-RAH').

It appears only rarely for girls in the U.S. Rare, Hebrew-rooted, and stately.

Did you know? The Hebrew word hadar behind Hadarah means splendour or adornment — it appears in the Bible for the glory of a king and, in one famous verse, for the beauty of a citron fruit at the festival of Sukkot.
