Meaning: Music, song, singing; Poetry

Shira is a melodic name of Hebrew origin. With the meaning “music” and “singing,” it will sound like the most beautiful tune every time you say baby’s name. An alternative but equally lovely meaning of this name is “poetry,” evoking images of ink-stained fingers and emotive words. With a name that is lilting in not only sound but also in definition, your little girl will undoubtedly march to the beat of her own drum.
