Ophira

אוֹפִירָה

• Gender: Female
• Origin: Modern Hebrew
• Meaning: gold

• Ophira means "gold" in Hebrew, the feminine form of Ofir, and it carries a radiant sense of preciousness and value. Like its masculine counterpart, it draws from the legendary biblical land of Ophir, famous for its golden treasures. But where Ofir is spare and streamlined, Ophira expands into three syllables that give the name a more ornate, stately presence.

  There is a shimmering, almost regal quality here that feels like a name destined for someone extraordinary. Israeli comedian and host Ophira Eisenberg shows how well the name travels across cultures. It is distinctive without being difficult, elegant without being fussy — a golden name with a feminine flourish that feels both luxurious and deeply rooted.
