DeLara
Dilara or Delara can be a given name or surname in several languages.
Delara (Persian: دلآرا-دلارا) is a Persian female first name popular in Iran and other Persian speaking countries such as Afghanistan and Tajikistan.
Dilara is popular in Turkic countries such as Azerbaijan and Turkey.
It is a compound word of Persian origin that consists of two parts: "Del"+"-ara". In Persian, "del" (دل) is a noun meaning heart, and "ara" is a suffix that comes from the Persian verb ārāstan (آراستن), meaning adorner, beautifier, and embellisher. According to the Dehkhoda Dictionary, Dilara can be translated as "she who delights the heart", "she who is pleasing" or "what makes heart beautiful".
Dilara or Delara can be also a variant of the Spanish or French habitational name Lara.
In the Shahnameh ("The Book of Kings"), the masterpiece of Ferdowsi (940–1025), Dilara was a prudent and wise queen in the time of the ancient Persian Empire. For hundreds of years since then in Persian literature, poets such as Saadi have used the name "Dilara" to refer a dearly loved woman who fills their hearts with joy and happiness.
