ArchivesRe: SEFORA and TABERA
in reply to a message by Andy ;—)
I'm pretty sure Sefora or Zefora exists as an Italian form of Zippora. Primo Levi mentions it in "The Periodic Table" discussing names in his family. But it's not common at all, though some Jews might use it.

This should be under OP:-)
One of my name books has the male name Taber listed as a form of Tabor. Tabor is Hungarian for 'encampment' or Hebrew 'misfortune, bad luck'. It's a name of a mountain in Israel. Other forms are Tab, Tabb, Taibor, Tavor, Taybor and Tayber.
ETA: I've also found Tabera as a Spanish last name.
