Meaning & origin
Zionah is a modern, feminine name that first appeared on U.S. birth certificates in 2000. It reached its peak year in 2009, but its popularity has been declining since 2010. Although the name is derived from the biblical place name Zion, it is a recent coinage combining Zion with the feminine suffix -ah, rather than a traditional Hebrew name. It has not ranked within the top 1000 names, and its usage remains sparse. The name has not been recorded as being particularly concentrated in any state.
Zionah is a modern coinage derived from Zion, the biblical name for Jerusalem and the Promised Land, combined with the feminine suffix -ah. It first appeared in U.S. records in 2000, likely as a variant of Zion or Ziona. Although it echoes the Hebrew name Tziyon (צִיּוֹן), its formation is an English innovation, not a traditional Hebrew name.
