Meerab

Meerab is a feminine given name used primarily in South Asia, notably in Pakistan, and among Urdu-speaking and diaspora communities. It appears in Urdu- and Persian-influenced naming traditions and is commonly encountered in contemporary naming practices.

There is no single fixed meaning for Meerab; as with many names drawn from Urdu and Persian linguistic traditions, it is often treated as a poetic or compound name rather than a term with a universally defined translation.

In modern usage, Meerab is typically given to girls and is found across diverse communities within and beyond South Asia. The name also appears in literature and media as a personal name, with variations in spelling commonly driven by family preference and regional naming conventions.
