Thinking about the name
Zari

“A short, punchy name derived from or inspired by Zara (Hebrew for 'blooming'), shortened to minimalist elegance. Zari works well across gender lines and appeals to parents seeking brevity without sacrificing style, with a jewel-like quality. The name feels both grounded and slightly exotic.”
