Zara is a feminine given name. It is the English form of the name Zaïre, the central character of Voltaire's 1732 play ''Zaïre (The Tragedy of Zara)''.〔 Voltaire may have been influenced by the Arabic name Zahra.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.behindthename.com/name/zai12re )〕 Its popularity may be influenced by the naming of Princess Anne's daughter Zara Phillips in 1981, and the Spanish fashion store Zara.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.behindthename.com/name/zara-1 )〕 Another derivation, unrelated to the above, is the Bulgarian name Zara (Зара) which is a diminutive of Zaharina or Zaharinka.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.behindthename.com/name/zara-2 )〕 ==Notable people with this name== *Zara (Russian singer) (born 1983), Russian pop singer and actress *Zara (Turkish singer) (born 1976), Turkish folk music singer *Zara Aldana (born1989), Filipina celebrity *Zara Bate (1909–1989), Australian fashion designer, wife of Harold Holt *Zara Cully (1892–1978), American actress *Zara Salim Davidson (born 1976), a member of the Malaysian royalty. *Zara Davis (born 1966), English windsurfer *Zara Dawson (born 1983), English actress and television presenter *Zara Dolukhanova (1918–2007), Armenian mezzo-soprano singer *Zara Durrani, Pakistani-Canadian actress and model *Zara Glover (born 1982), English ten-pin bowler *Zara Hore-Ruthven, Countess of Gowrie (1879–1965), Irish-born wife of the Earl of Gowrie, Governor-General of Australia *Zara Larsson (born 1997), Swedish singer *Zara Levina (1906–1976), Ukrainian pianist and composer *Zara Mints (1927–1990), Russian-Estonian literary scientist, wife of Yuri Lotman *Zara Nelsova (1918–2002), Canadian cellist *Zara Northover (born 1984), Jamaican shot putter *Zara Nutley, British television actress *Zara Phillips (born 1981), daughter of Princess Anne of the United Kingdom *Zara Sheikh (born 1982), Pakistani model and Lollywood actress *Zara Turner (born ca. 1968), British actress *Zara Whites (born 1968), Dutch television personality, activist and former pornographic actress *Zara Wright (active 1920), American author based in Chicago 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Zara (given name)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
