Tiferet
תִּפְאֶרֶת
- Gender: Female
- Origin: Modern Hebrew
- Meaning: glory
-
Tiferet means "glory" or "beauty" in Hebrew, and it holds a special place in Jewish thought as one of the ten sefirot in Kabbalah and a guiding concept in Pirkei Avot, where it is associated with choosing a path that brings honor to yourself and to those around you. It is a name that invites its bearer to live with intention and grace.
With its Kabbalistic mystique, this name carries real depth and intrigue, representing the perfect balance between mercy and judgment. Its three-syllable melody sounds stately and graceful, aging from a luminous little girl into a woman of substance. Remarkably rare in the US, Tiferet remains a hidden gem with profound spiritual resonance — the kind of name people ask about twice and never forget.
