Princess or flower
Zarai is a rare name with multiple potential etymological paths. It is often considered a variation of the Hebrew name Sarah, meaning 'princess' or 'noblewoman', or linked to the Arabic word Zahra, which translates to 'flower' or 'shining one'. Its scarcity in the United States gives it a modern, distinctive feel while retaining ancient roots.
