I only think of the girl from America's Next Top Model. I hear or see it and I only associate it with that race as well. That might be wrong to some people but I feel that way about a few names.

I like Xiomara, I think it looks romantic and exotic, but people might misspell and mispronounce it. Mara might be a more mainstream nn.

Very nice! I like it : )

Xiomara is not uncommon these days among Hispanic Americans.

I am completely neutral about this name. I think it might be hard for a non-Hispanic family to deal with.

I've never heard of it before. It's different and unique, but not revolting. It could grow on me, but it isn't in my style of naming. I like it.

(Sorry if all that made no sense at all. It's been a long day.)
