History & Origin

Ziomara is a Spanish spelling of Xiomara, a name common in Latin America and among Spanish-speaking families in the U.S. Its usual reading is Germanic — elements for 'battle' and 'famous' — inherited through the Visigothic names that entered Spanish. That etymology is debated, which we note (said 'zee-oh-MAH-rah').

It appears only rarely in the U.S., well behind Xiomara. Rare, strong, and Spanish-rooted.
