Ciera is a phenomenon of Generation X and Y. Previously, the name wasn't really on the radar of expectant parents. Schoolkids of the early 20th century probably didn't have classmates named Ciera - until this very name unexpectedly cried out for attention and peaked in popularity at rank number 358 in 1993. Although it has never reached the top 100 list, this girls' name seems to have been in vogue for a while, which makes Ciera really in tune with her generation.
In years where the graph has no value, the name Ciera was given less than five times or even none at all in the entire USA.
