User Comments about the name Ira
Comment left Mar 02, 2010: "My Name is Ira and I am a Male 30 yrs old. My father was named Ira in 1927 and I was named after him. I do not go by Ira, as I have never really liked the name. People find it to be odd, especially men.. However, most females I meet love the name.. I wouldn't recommend it for a boy.." (Report as inappropriate)
