History & Origin
Teaira is a respelling of Tiara, a word that reached English through Latin from a Greek name for a Persian royal headdress and now means a jeweled crown. As a given name it carries that regal sparkle. The Teaira spelling simply lays out the sounds as spoken.
Teaira crested around 1992, part of a wave of word-names and creative respellings of Tiara, and has thinned since. A woman given it then is in her early thirties now. The plain Tiara is more familiar, and Teaira reads as a distinctive spelling of a name tied to its decade.
