Additional info: |
Ciara is an Irish name derived from the Irish Gaelic word "ciar," meaning "dark." It is traditionally pronounced "KEER ah," with a hard K. This name is the original version of the anglicised variants Keira and Kira. In the US, Ciara is frequently pronounced identically to Sierra; this may partially be due to ignorance of Irish phonetics, and partially due to the popularity of an old American perfume called "Ciara" that was pronounced "see AIR ah." A US pop star called Ciara pronounces it with a soft C. |
