History & Origin
Tacarra is a coined name from the Ta- prefixing style of late-century Black American naming; its sound recalls Takara, a Japanese word for 'treasure', but the resemblance is phonetic rather than a true borrowing, which we note honestly.
It was always rare, cresting in the early nineteen-eighties and fading afterward. It reads as an inventive, of-its-era American name.
