Meaning & origin

Syrai first entered U.S. birth records in 2002, a modern name that has seen modest use since the 2000s. Its peak year was 2004, after which it declined in usage. Since 2015, however, the name has been on a rising trajectory, though it remains exceptionally rare: in 2025, only about 1 in every 160,727 newborns received the name, placing it at rank 9,457th. It has not been recorded in any U.S. state's top names list, reflecting its niche appeal. The name's modern, invented quality and open-ended meaning make it a distinctive choice for parents seeking a unique sound.

Syrai first appeared in U.S. records in the early 2000s. It is likely a modern invented name, possibly derived from the sounds of names like Siri or Syrah, or influenced by the Persian name Sarah. Its spelling suggests a fashionable -ai ending, common in contemporary coinages.
