The name Jhayro is a modern spelling adaptation derived from the name Jairo. It retains the same meaning and pronunciation, and this modern spelling (Jhayro) was created in Sibilia, Quetzaltenango, Guatemala.  Legal documents exist with this spelling of the name in the U.S. and Latin America. Jairo is a masculine given name of Hebrew origin (often associated with Yair), meaning "he shines" or "God will illuminate." Other modern spellings include Jhayro, Jayro, and Hayro. All of these are pronounced exactly like (Jairo), and this pronunciation is legally required; the different spellings are simply modern variations that do not alter the pronunciation.
