Meaning:
Of Irene; Woman of peace
Iria is a feminine name of Portuguese and Greek origin. It's blessed with the hippy-dippy meaning of "woman of peace," after Irene, the Greek goddess of peace. As one of three Horai, Irene watched over the gates of heaven. She also brought Spring blooms each year. Baby can also draw divine inspiration from St. Irene, a 7th-century nun whose tomb is still a site for miracles. With this heavenly name, your Iria will be a ray of sunshine on the cloudiest days!
