It’s such a timeless name, it’s short and sweet, and I love names that are unique so it was perfect! Reply amy Feb 23 at 10:49 am Vera means faith in russian and truth in latin. I wanted a hopeful name that reflects my beliefs and heritage. Reply Vera Martin Feb 7 at 1:22 pm My name is Vera Bridget. My parents came to the US from Ireland. I’m the oldest of 4 girls, no boys. Going to school in the 60’s, I was ALWAYS the only Vera. I didn’t like being the only girl in my class, every year, that had such an unusual name. However, as an adult, I love my name. These days girls everywhere have unique names. Therefore, I think people that are considering naming their daughter Vera should go for it! Reply Lindsay May 1 at 7:44 am Do you pronounce Vair-a or Veer-a? Reply Rose Jan 16 at 10:35 pm We chose the name Vera because it’s different and she’s one in a million! She’s the sweetest baby ever! Vera came from her dads GMA and her middle name is Kay after my mom who passed away 3 years ago.. She’ll be one on Jan 28th. Her dad and I are both 33 and she’s our first baby! She’s definitely a princess! ?? Reply Jane Jun 26 at 5:56 am It means truth and faithfulness and I love that! Beautiful and unique Reply Michelle Mar 29 at 10:27 am Vera feels slightly exotic but it has been anglicized for over a century, so it has the side benefit of also feeling timeless. Most names have some sort of origin meaning, but Vera has an unmistakable and familiar root in veritas (truth). Reply Kelly Jun 11 at 11:07 am Vera is such a beautiful old fashioned name it was my great grandmas name I absolutely love it ? Reply vera May 11 at 6:57 pm are you my mum- Reply Hannah Apr 19 at 1:05 pm I have a baby girl named Vera and I love her name. It’s recognizable without being too common. It’s cute and feminine, without being frilly. I will say, more people pronounce her name as vair-ah than I expected, which is kind of frustrating. We live in Michigan, so maybe it’s just a location thing. Reply Lindsay May 1 at 7:46 am Nope. I live in Indiana and also get Vair-a pronunciation. It is a bit irritating ? Reply Christine Apr 16 at 9:51 pm Classy, with a little mystery Reply Rebecca Apr 13 at 2:32 pm Her name is the female character from the novel War and Peace. It was very popular in Europe when the book was first published. My husband is the one who actually chose it because we’d also gave our son(who went to heaven three days after birth) a middle name after a character in a novel.
