原My name is Zora Mae. I was named after my great grandma Zora. Spelling of Mae is from my other grandma. Both were amazing ladies and I'm proud to bare their names. Personality wise I can't imagine another name. Even growing up where people would question my name I felt that sense of joy explaining where my name came from.
原My daughter's name is Zora Mae. When researching it, we found out it was a popular name in America at the turn of the century. So, if you're looking for an old-fashioned name that hasn't had a huge resurgence yet, then I think Zora is a beautiful choice. It's not so off the wall sounding when compared to popular names like Zoey, Norah, Cora, Laura, etc.
I do worry about the Spanish slang a bit (i.e. zorra=slutty) because we live in a hispanic/latino populated state, but only one person has ever made mention of it. It's pronounced very different in English, and the extra 'r' matters a lot. The same can be said about the 'e' being pretty important in 'ho vs. Hoe'. :p
And yes, it also did fit my husband's nerd criteria as he also recognized it from the Zelda video game series immediately when I suggested this name.
原My name is Zora and other than my Aunt Zora who I am named after, I have not met any other Zora's growing up in the US. I have always enjoyed the uniqueness of the name.
原I named my daughter Zora (6/12/15) I picked it for the uniqueness of it as that's a theme with my family & I haven't came across anyone who knows another Zora.
原Zóra is the name of the best friend of the main character in Téa Obreht's "The Tiger's Wife," which takes place in unnamed Balkan countries (as determined by geographic locations mentioned within the story, most likely Serbia and Croatia).
原Don't use this if you are planning on speaking Spanish, traveling to Spanish-speaking countries, or associating with Spanish-speaking people. Zorra means "prostitute" or "slut" (lit. "fox") in Spanish. It's a shame, though, because it's really pretty...
原In Spanish the word 'zorra' means 'fox' and is actually used as an insult towards girls meaning something along the lines of 'prostitute', unfortunately. :(
To pronounce 'zorra' in Spanish you would roll the letter 'r'. (You can hear the pronunciation in this link: http://www.forvo.com/word/zorra/)
I do happen to like this name, though I thought I'd warn everyone how it would be quite embarassing to have this name in the country Spain.

原"Zora" (the stress is on the "a") is a Slavonic word and means "dawn". That is why the feminine name "Zora" (the stress is on the "a" or on the "o") is also used in Bulgaria. Other names with the same root, which are used in this country, are the feminine name "Zorka" (the stress is on the "o"), its masculine form "Zorko" (the stress is on the "o"), the masculine name "Zoran" (the stress is on the "o"), its feminine form "Zorana" (the stress is on the 1st "a"), the feminine name "Zorina" (the stress is on the "i"), its masculine form "Zorin" (the stress is on the "i"), but the most popular name in Bulgaria, which is connected with "zora", is the feminine name "Zornitza" (the stress is on the "i"). "Zornitza" means "morning star" in Bulgarian.
原"Zora" is pronounced with short "o" and short "a" and the stress is on the 2nd syllable, i.e. on the "a"; but the English speaking people pronounce "Zora" with a stress on the 1st syllable, i.e. on the "o", that is why the "a" is not clear.
原"Çîðà" ("zora") is a Slavonic word and means "dawn". That is why the female name "Çîðà" ("Zora") is also used in Bulgaria. Other names with the same route, which are used in Bulgaria, are the female name "Çîðêà" ("Zorka"), its male form "Çîðêî" ("Zorko"), the male name "Çîðàí" ("Zoran"), its female form "Çîðàíà" ("Zorana"), the female name "Çîðèíà" ("Zorina"), its male form "Çîðèí" ("Zorin"), but the most popular name in Bulgaria connected with "çîðà" is "Çîðíèöà" ("Zornitz(s)a").

译 我女儿的名字是Zora Mae。当研究它，我们发现它是一个流行的名字在美国在世纪之交。所以，如果你正在寻找一个没有大的复苏的老式名字，那么我认为Zora是一个美丽的选择。与Zoey，Norah，Cora，Laura等受欢迎的名字相比，它的声音不是那么糟糕。我担心西班牙俚语有点（即zorra = slutty），因为我们生活在西班牙/拉丁美洲人口稠密的州，但是只有一个人曾经提到它。它的发音非常不同的英语，和额外的'r'很重要。同样可以说'e'在'ho和Hoe'很重要。 ：pAnd是的，它也符合我丈夫的书呆子标准，因为他也认识到从塞尔达的视频游戏系列，当我建议这个名字。
