Pronunciation of Vera in the US

In the US, Vera is primarily classified as a first name. The American pronunciation, specifically in Washington, D.C., USA, is

The name is originally Russian, meaning "faith", and is pronounced in its native tongue something like VYAIR-ah, with a touch of a rolled "r". It became popular in the West around the turn of the 20th century and, though spelled Vera in English, was commonly pronounced VEE-rah in both the US and UK. This phonetic disconnect has fallen by the wayside in recent times, however. The default international pronunciation VAIR-rah has rapidly gained prominence, lending this once dated name fresh elegance, strength, and sophistication.
