Also Italian, pronounced DZAH-rah.
In 2019 were born 31 Zara (0.02% of the newborns). It was the #471 most used name in 2019 and all around Italy live 1,376 Zara.
It is the variant of Zaira. Then it is also used as Italianization of many Arabic and Hebrew names (Zerah, Zahrah, Zahra) and a short of some Slavic and Russian names.
So in Italy Zara is becoming a very multi-tasking name, useful to translate a lot of foreign names. I think that it will fastly increase in popularity.
Infact in 2003 were born less than five babies with this name but after 2012 it has increased in popularity.

This was my great-great grandmother's name, but she went by Sarah after she and my great-great grandfather emigrated from Germany to the United States.

This name is more popular in Australia than anywhere else in the world - it's in the top 25 names for girls.
There have been a number of famous Australians called Zara over the years, which may help explain it.
Zara Hore-Ruthven, Countess of Gowrie (1879-1965), who was wife of the Governor of South Australia.
Dame Zara Kate Holt (1909-1989), wife of Prime Minister Harold Holt.
Why the name continues to climb is something of a mystery, however. It's hard to believe it's because of the clothing brand when it is not available in Australia yet (will be later in 2011).
