History & Origin

Siria appears in Spanish and Italian usage as a feminine given name, generally read either as the place name Syria or as a form linked to Sirius, the brilliant dog star, from a Greek root meaning glowing or scorching. Both readings lend it a bright, warm character. In the United States it has been used lightly, most often in Spanish-speaking families.

Siria was never a common name in the United States. It appeared only in small numbers, given to fewer than twenty girls a year at its peak in the late two-thousands, with scattered use before then.
