Zoha is a feminine title rich in history, originating from Quranic roots. The literal meaning, 'Morning light', evokes imagery of nature and radiance, suggesting a personality full of life and positivity.

Pronounced as Zoha, it has a rhythmic flow that makes it memorable and distinct. It is an excellent choice for a modern Muslim family honoring tradition.

Zoha, like Zuha, comes from the Arabic root d-h-w, the root behind Surah Ad-Duha (93).
