Meaning and origin

Miracle means From Latin miraculum, 'object of wonder,' from mirari ('to wonder at, marvel, be astonished'), from mirus ('wonderful, astonishing'), ultimately from the Proto-Indo-European root *smei- ('to smile, laugh'). Entered English via Old French miracle (11th century).

Names associated with the concept of a miracle are sometimes chosen to express gratitude for a child's birth, or to mark a birth regarded by the family as especially hoped-for or hard-won; this is a naming-motivation pattern reported by parenting-content sources rather than a documented formal tradition.

Real-world considerations

Popularity-history figures for Miracle found across secondary sources (first top-1000 appearance year, peak-year birth counts) were not consistent with each other and could not be verified against a primary SSA source within this research pass; they are therefore omitted rather than reported as fact.
