History & Origin

Sareyah is a modern American coinage on the popular -eyah ending. It chimes with Sarai (the name Sarah carried before Genesis renamed her) and with Soraya, a Persian name tied to the star cluster of the Pleiades. Those are echoes in sound only — Sareyah has no documented etymology, and the routes are uncertain, which we note (said 'suh-RAY-uh').

It appears only rarely in the U.S. Rare, flowing, and modern.

Did you know? Two lovely names stand near Sareyah — Sarai, Sarah's earlier name in Genesis, and Soraya, a Persian name tied to the Pleiades. Whether either is its source is undocumented, which we note.
