Meaning & Origin
plural of zoon
Zoa is a girl's baby name of Greek origin, a variant of Zoe, from the Greek zōḗ, meaning 'life' — one of the most fundamental and universally beautiful feminine names, a single word that contains all of existence.
With over 597 recorded births, Zoa is a rare and distinctive variant of Zoë/Zoe that gives the name a slightly more unusual visual character. Zoe has been one of the most popular women's names globally in the early 21st century — used in Orthodox Christian communities since the early church and now beloved in secular communities for its clean, vibrant sound. As Zoa, it carries all of Zoe's life-affirming beauty with a more unusual written form.
