Meaning and origin of Zuhaira
Zuhaira is the girl's form of Zuhayr and means little flower, from zahra or zahr, a bloom. Arabic shapes it on the fuʿayla pattern, which softens a word into an affectionate diminutive. It is rarer than Zahra but known in the Arab world and South Asia. Its root, z-h-r, also gives Arabic words for brightness and radiance, and Zouhaira and Zohaira are other spellings.
