History & Origin

Mifrah comes from an Arabic root meaning joy and gladness, the same root behind Farah and Farhan, and is read as 'joyful, glad, one who brings happiness.' Names of quality and feeling are a long-standing part of Arabic naming, alongside names of virtue and of faith. Mifrah is uncommon even in Arabic-speaking countries and very rare in the United States, and we present it honestly with that noted (said 'MIF-rah').

It appears only in very small numbers in the U.S. Rare, bright, and Arabic.

Did you know? Arabic naming draws freely on words for happiness - Farah, Farhan, Mifrah - each a slightly different shade of gladness from the same root.
