Meaning & History
Meaning uncertain, though the name is likely of either Arabic or Persian origin. It might possibly be derived from Arabic زريمة (zarima) meaning "flaming, igniting, submissive" or from Persian زر (zar) meaning "gold, golden" (compare Zarya). Also see the entry for the Soviet name Zarema, which looks the same but has an entirely different meaning and origin.
