Auraya Origin and Meaning

The name Auraya is a girl's name meaning "golden; soft breeze".

Fitting in with Aurora, Aurelia, Raya and Arya, Auraya is a name that feels both modern and mystical. It is most likely a spelling variation of the golden Aurea or the breezy Aura, though it could be a spin on the Indian place name Auraiya, which ultimately leads back to Auria or Aurea, both meaning "golden" or "golden gilded". Seven girls received the name in 2023 when it featured in the US stats for only the second time ever.
