AFL player Jude Bolton, and his wife Lynette, welcomed their first child on January 11 as well. Their daughter Siarra Neve weighed 4.02 kg (9 pounds).
Jude plays with the Sydney Swans, and has been with them since 1999. Lynette is a wedding and event planner, and is part of the reality TV show WAG Nation, on Foxtel. The show looks at the private lives of the wives and girlfriends of Australian sports stars. She is a supporter of animal welfare charities. Jude and Lynette met in 2005 and were married in January 2010.
Although Siarra looks like a variant of Sierra, in this case it’s probably a variant of the Irish name Ciara.
Siarra Bolton is the first celebrity baby girl to be announced for 2012.

I would have prefered Ciara Niamh or Ciara Neve as that looks like Sierra Neve
It would have been pretty as Sierra Neve. Oh well.
Slightly awkward at first glance, but after a few read-overs it’s not so awkward at all!
I’d say it’s closer to a mash up between Ciara and Sierra since Ciara has a hard C sound (kee-ar-ah) and Siarra doesn’t. Probably…
I’m not sure whether everybody knows that – but you’re probably right. Although once people start messing with spelling etc it can be hard to tell which name something is based on.
actually Ciara is said like Keira (Kirra)
I think that’s a common pronunciation, but not strictly correct.
Really i thought it was as I know a Ciara whose parents are Irish and she pronounces it like Keira
It’s so hard to actually tell a pronunciation without hearing it, but I bow to your superior knowledge on this one.
hahaha I know three so I guess I have to and they all say it Kirra
