    Delara

    Pronounced deh-LAH-rah

    girl
    Not found in the KJV text — No — the name Delara does not appear in the King James Bible. Christian families use it for its meaning, "Adorner of the heart; Beloved", and for the biblical themes that meaning touches, not because anyone in Scripture is called Delara.
    Meaning
    "Adorner of the heart; Beloved"
    Origin
    Persian

    Delara adorns the heart — and God looks upon the heart's adornment. 'Whose adorning let it not be that outward adorning... but let it be the hidden man of the heart.' Delara's beauty is within.

    Spiritual meaning

    Delara adorns the hidden heart — not outward gold but the incorruptible ornament, the meek spirit that the LORD sees and treasures.

    Questions about biblical name meanings

    How do I find the biblical meaning of a name?

    Type the name into the search box above. The tool returns the Hebrew, Greek, Aramaic, or Latin root behind the name, its literal meaning, and the King James Version passages where it appears.

    Does every name have a biblical meaning?

    No. Many modern Christian names never appear in Scripture, and some popular 'biblical meanings' circulating online are inaccurate. Where a name is thematic rather than scriptural, we say so plainly instead of inventing a verse for it.

    Which Bible translation do the verses come from?

    The King James Version. It is public domain in the United States, so the text can be quoted and shared freely.

    How can I tell whether a name is actually in the Bible?

    Each result distinguishes a name that appears in the KJV from a later Christian or thematic name. Related verses explain a theme; they are not presented as proof that a modern name occurs in Scripture.
