Origin: Italian

Meaning: Bright, luminous

Chiara is a girl's name of Italian origin, inspired by the Latin Clara. Simply meaning "bright" and "luminous," use this sunny name as a constant reminder of baby's smile, her future, or any number of things that bring joy to this new little light in the world. Its romantic feel sounds familiar, like Keira or Cara, but is still special enough to make an impression. If you were unsure about Chiara being trendy enough for your little one, then Italian fashionista Chiara Ferragni, one of the original style bloggers, should convince you.
