Zerlina

US Popularity Rank: 10786

Origin: Arabic

Meaning: Beautiful dawn

Zerlina is a girl's name of Arabic origin that has traveled across Eastern Europe and as far as Spain. With a meaning that elicits one of the planet's most stunning images, "beautiful dawn," your little Zerlina will forever be grateful for the name. Zerlina was made famous in Mozart's opera Don Giovanni as the wily servant girl who always gets her way. Something that didn't get its way was 531 Zerlina - an 18km asteroid belt that thankfully never made its way here! And, in turn, that has allowed us and baby Zerlina to enjoy many more beautiful dawns.
