Best Answer

It may be Latin in origin, coming from the Proto-Indo European word *(s)peys- meaning "to blow/breathe". Simply it may mean breath.

As an Ashkenazic Jewish habitational name it originates from Shpire, which is the Yiddish name of the German city of Speyer. Speyer comes from the Latin spira which ulitmately comes from the Proto-Indo-European *sper- meaning "to twist/coil".

As a diminutive from of the Greek name Spyridon, ultimately comeing from the Latin spiritus it would mean "spirit".
