Girl name · 13 babies recorded · 1974–2025
Miraal: 13 babies born in Scotland since 1974, given to girls, peaking at 4 births in 2025.
Derived from Arabic, Miraal means 'princess' or 'noblewoman', tracing back to a root associated with leadership and grace. It shares its form with the variant Miral, which gained cultural visibility through the 2010 film 'Miral' directed by Julian Schnabel, a drama set in the West Bank. Favoured in South Asian families, it conveys a sense of royalty and elegance. This name has entered Scottish baby naming charts in modest numbers, reflective of a multicultural Scotland. While distinct from the Celtic Mira, its soft sound fits well with modern naming trends.
