Sarai means "you'll be" in Italian.
It is my name and I like it. One day I was at the airport and a woman told me that I should change that name into Sarah. I asked why she said that Sarai means childless! I dis-agred with her and am now 21 weeks pregnant!
Thanks, I did not know the meaning of my name and now I have known it. Princess.
Sarai is a biblical name. Sarai means "princess". Sarai was the wife of Abraham and mother of Isaac. She had 3 names in her lifetime; Yescah as a child, which means "to see/gaze upon", Sarai which she changed to once she was older during a spiritual refinement, & Sarah, the name given to her by God. Sarai was known for her prophecy, her astounding beauty, kindness, purity, and loyalty to God. She was also a role model to mothers during and well beyond her time. Sarai/Sarah was truly blessed with many miracles by God during her lifetime; one being the ability to give birth to her only son Isaac, pain free, at the age of 90yrs old after believing to be unable to bear children for many years.
(Baby on the way will be named Sarai.)
Sarai means 'palace' in Turkish.
In "The Five Books of Moses: A Translation with Commentary", which is the Torah translated into English by Robert Alter, the commentary offers another explanation to the origin of the name Sarai, other than the possible meaning of "contentious". "The only difference between Sarai and Sarah is that the former reflects an archaic feminine suffix, the latter, the normative feminine suffix: both versions of the name mean "princess"". Robert Alter is a professor of the Hebrew language so his interpretation of the name is likely to be accurate. [noted -ed]
Sarai means quarrelsome, and Sarah means Princess. The bible says that she was the most beautiful in all the land so beautiful that Abraham said that they were cousins so the pharaoh wouldn't kill him to take her for his wife. My daughter Sarai gets a lot of compliments.
