Crown or incense
Ketara is a rare name likely derived from the Hebrew word 'Keter' meaning crown, or potentially linked to 'Keturah' meaning incense. It is often chosen for its melodic sound and its connection to symbols of honor and fragrance. While uncommon in the United States, it shares linguistic roots with more traditional biblical names.
