Ngaire

The meaning of Ngaire is 'flax flower' and it is traditionally a girl's name. The name Ngaire is popular in Australia and New Zealand, where notable bearers include author and academic Ngaire Woods and TV producer Ngaire Fuata. Ngaire means 'silver fern' in the Maori language of baby names. The Maori people place great significance on the flax flower since it was used to make everything from rafts and floats to garments. Baby should be reminded of the importance of their position within the world by this, just as the natural cycle does. The name Ngaire is occasionally transliterated as Nyree. Its precise roots are unknown, although it is known that it emerged in New Zealand, where the name is pronounced using Maori phonetics instead of English phonetics. The naming of the Taranaki town Ngaere, which means 'swamp', as it appeared in the 19th century before being changed from Ngaire until Ngaere in 1909, suggests one probable origin. There are many people with the name Ngaire such as New Zealand Olympic swimmer Ngaire Lane, New Zealand marathon runner Ngaire Drake, and Papua New Guinean singer Ngaire Joseph.
