Myra
Girl's name, classic
Myra is a feminine given name, now somewhat old-fashioned in English-speaking countries.
It was coined in the 17th century, possibly as an anagram of Mary or derived from Latin *mira* (wonderful).
In the UK, the name became virtually unusable after the 1960s Moors Murders, associated with convicted killer Myra Hindley.
