The baby name Xiomara is a girl name , 4 syllables long and is pronounced zee-oh-MAH-rah.

Xiomara is Germanic, Portuguese, Spanish in Origin.

Xiomara is a Hispanic feminine name usually treated as a remodeled form of Guiomar, the Spanish and Portuguese continuation of Germanic Wigmar. The earliest recoverable stage is Continental Germanic *Wigamāri, later Wigmar, a dithematic compound of *wīgą, war or battle, and *mērijaz, famous, renowned. Iberian sound history often turned initial Germanic w into gu, giving Guiomar; Xiomara is a later reshaping with x.

Usage is strongest in Latin America and the Hispanic Caribbean, with Cuban soprano Xiomara Alfaro and Honduran president Xiomara Castro among noted bearers. Guiomar has older medieval Iberian standing, whereas Xiomara reads as a Spanish-American variant; related forms include Guiomara, Siomara, and masculine Xiomar. U.S. Social Security data show Top 1000 appearances from 2004 to 2011 and renewed use in the 2020s. Fiction has added recognition through Jane the Virgin and Elizabeth Acevedo’s The Poet X.
