9. Every Tom, Dick and Harry is named Zaara. I was six months pregnant when my daughter's name came to me. Zaheer and I were walking around Manhattan, and all of a sudden, I said, "Zaara!" In the end, I got mostly positive responses to her name. Except for one aunt. "I wanted to name my granddaughter that name!" she exclaimed.
