Meaning and background
The story behind Nari
Nari has a documented Korean floral meaning in Behind the Name's main entry: lily. The source gives the Hangul spelling 나리 and a two-syllable Korean pronunciation, with a light r sound in the second syllable. That supplies a clear name tradition for someone choosing Nari because of flowers or a Korean connection. The account concerns the Korean name specifically; it should not be extended automatically to every similar spelling in another language.
