The name Yaris (NOT THE CAR!)?

Question: The name Yaris (NOT THE CAR!)!?

My great-great aunt's name was Yaris and I've been trying to find out what it means, but it's not in most of the online name sites, and all of my other searches come up with results for the stupid car! It might be Yiddish (she was Jewish)!. If anyone can help me find out more about more about the name, I would really appreciate it!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I tried searching the spelling "Yaris" w/ no luck!. But, tried again, using the D-M Soundex search!. I found a couple of likely hits!.

Legal/Hebrew: Yore Yiddish: Yore Yiddish Nickname: Yores

Legal/Hebrew: Yiras

Neither of these names gives an origin, however!.

Another possible!?
