Meaning and history
Myranda is a modern English spelling variant of Miranda. Miranda was created as a personal name by William Shakespeare for Prospero’s daughter in The Tempest. It derives from Latin mirandus, meaning “admirable” or “worthy of wonder.” The literary character gives the name its principal historical significance, and a moon of Uranus was later named Miranda after her. Reliable prominent real-life bearers using the exact spelling Myranda are limited.
