Zaaire, of African origin, is an uncommon yet captivating first name. Pronounced as 'Zah-air', it is derived from the Bantu word 'Zair', meaning 'free'. This distinctive moniker gained prominence during the 20th century when it was used for the Democratic Republic of Congo, previously known as Zaire.
"Zaaire had an equal number of babies born each year between 2008 and 2009, with five births recorded annually during this period."
