What does Shraga mean?

The name Shraga is commonly a male name from the "Aramaic" origin that means "light".

Shraga is an Aramaic word meaning "light" or "lamp", attested in the Aramaic of rabbinic literature and glossed with those senses in Jastrow's dictionary of Targumic and Talmudic Aramaic. It is used as a personal name in Jewish communities, where it frequently appears as the first element of a paired name rather than on its own. The name therefore has a statable language and root, not merely a resemblance to one.
