Zoma is a unique and distinctive given name of Ethiopian origin, derived from the Amharic word 'zom' which means 'to be patient'. It gained global recognition through the prominent Ethiopian runner Abebe Bikila, who won gold medals in both the 1960 and 1964 Olympic marathons, often being referred to as 'Fitsum Zoma' - his full first name. While it's not a common name worldwide, Zoma carries a strong cultural heritage and a powerful athletic legacy.
"Zoma saw a consistent number of births over these years, with six babies being born annually from 1913 to 1923, followed by five births in 1930, making the total number of Zomas born during this period seventeen."
