All around the world, ไพเราะ (ไพเราะ 
, Pairoh 
, Phairo 
) is quite a common mostly female, but seldom male first name. The forename ไพเราะ is characteristic of Thailand, where it is quite a rare largely girly, but uncommonly boy's name, and India, where it is an extremely rare dominantly female, but infrequently boy's name. Much less frequently, ไพเราะ is the last name as well as the forename.
