Zara?

[vess]

Zara is the only name me and Dh seem to agree on, but is it too much like the shop?

Also thinking of Zora as an alternative, what do you think of that?

Love Zara. No idea why anyone would link it to the shop really.

Is Zora a real name??

I think it's fine - was a name before it was a shop.

Zara is on my shortlist, don't like Zora. I am still trying to decide whether I can put up with people saying, 'With a Z or an S?'. I already have one child with a name that everyone pronounces incorrectly!

Zora is nice enough, but it sounds like Zorba, so people might make 'Zorba The Greek' jokes...

I dont think the shop association should be a great problem?
Zara is a lot prettier than Zora imo..
if you want to make it different to the shop how about Zahra, that is also nice

Thanks for all replies, sounds like Zara is ok then!
