About the name Moira
Moira belongs to the English & American tradition. Its roots are documented, even though its precise meaning is not recorded in the standard references — an honest gap we prefer to a confident guess.
In the United States, Moira first appears in Social Security records in 1913. It climbed to its best-ever rank of #833 in 1965, and in 2024 105 babies received the name — 7,847 in total since 1880. Those are the official counts, not estimates.
