Translated it means "descent" derived from Miriam who had "descended to the Nile" to find out what happened to her brother. In the Hebrew it is written ירד / יֶרֶד / יָרֶד, pronounced yĕ\yā́-rĕḏ. When transliterated into the English language, variations include Jared / Jarred / Jaryd / Jarod / Jered / Jerad / Jerrad / Jurd / Jerid (among other variations), being generally pronounced as dʒĕ-rĕd\rəd; according to classic Biblical pronunciation (denoted by syllabic stress accenting) it can be rendered dʒā\dʒē-rĕd.
