Help[Facts] Re: What does my name mean?!?
in reply to a message by NameQuery
I found a post on WordReference asking the same question:
http://forum.wordreference.com/threads/tovara.2497212/
That's the only page I can find with regards to Tovara's meaning but I can't find the meaning on here, just guesses and explanations on what it could mean.
Just to be clear, when the OP said that her mother pronounces the name /tʌ vɑːr ə/, ʌ isn't in the IPA for Hebrew.

His first suggestion was based on TVB, the root of the name TOBIAH, but Hebrew has a B that is not conflated with a V. V is usually used interchangeably with W.
TVR < http://www.blueletterbible.org/lang/lexicon/lexicon.cfm?Strongs=H2905&t=KJV > may be closer to the root. |-ah| is a feminine ending.
One likely meaning is "defender."
