History & Origin

Teari reads as a modern American coinage on the Te- opening and the -ari ending. Its music happens to echo the Tahitian tiare, the gardenia worn behind the ear across French Polynesia, though nothing documents that as its route. The origins are uncertain, which we note (said 'tee-AH-ree').

It appears only very rarely for girls in the U.S. Very rare, soft, and coined.

Did you know? Teari sounds close to tiare, the fragrant white gardenia that is Tahiti's national flower — but that resemblance may be a coincidence of sound rather than a source, which we note.
