Vatra means "hearth", "fireplace" in Albanian and Romanian, and "fire" in Serbo-Croatian.

The word vatra (alternatively votra; Albanian indefinite form: vatër/votër) is derived from Proto-Albanian *ōtar, obtained through the *o- to *vo-/*va- transformation which is observed exclusively in the Albanian language. It is an Albanian inherited term from Proto-Indo-European *h₂eh₁ter- ("fire").
