Fara

Variant transcription of Farah.

Short form of various, now obsolete, Germanic names that contained the element -fara-, for example Burgundofara. This name is predominantly found in Sicily, Naples and, to a lesser degree, Tuscany reflecting the local veneration of Saint Fara.

Means "screwpine" (also called pandanus; a type of plant and fruit) in Tahitian.

This name is derived either from Langobardic fara "family, line, kind" or Gothic faran "to travel". It can be a short form of names like Faramund and Farahild.

Meaning "happy" or "joyous".
