Zarah is a spelling of Zara, a name with two sources: the Arabic zahra, "flower" or "blossom", and the Hebrew Sarah, "princess", which gives it a soft, international feel. The final h ties it to Sarah and to the biblical Zerah, while the sound matches current favorites like Zoe and Zuri. Zarah has never made the US top 1000, but it rose from number 1730 in 2015 to number 1219 in 2022 and holds number 1435 in 2025.
