Anetra Origin and Meaning

The name Anetra is a girl's name.

Anetra is a feminine name of uncertain origin, possibly a variant of Anitra or a creative modern formation. Anitra has Norwegian literary roots from Henrik Ibsen's play 'Peer Gynt,' though the variant Anetra appears to be a distinct American creation. The name has a melodic, flowing quality with its soft consonants and open vowel sounds. Anetra saw limited usage in the United States primarily in the 1970s and 1980s, remaining relatively uncommon. The name carries a contemporary feel while maintaining a feminine elegance. Its rarity gives it a distinctive quality that might appeal to parents seeking something recognizable yet uncommon for their daughter.
