Daughter hopefully born 7-18-19
I am having my first child this month and I made a bet with my wife that If she’s born on 7-18-19 I get to name her Zora. She hates it but I would flip if she was born that day. Stupid post I know, but what else is there to talk about on the C8 forums anyways?
What do you guys think? Am I going to ruin her life naming her after a great corvette persona?

Ha Ha. Good one. Well you may have missed all the talk about how it is unacceptable it is before it has been revealed. That is what we have to talk about. Zora is probably better than Bill Mitchell or some other names.

If your daughter is born that day, the C8 reveal will be the furthest thing from your mind. In five years the car will be old news, but your daughter will be your life. Emma's a great name, don't consider saddling her with something strange. Good luck.

One of the better C8 posts I've read all month.
Congrats on your child to be. But Zora?
Aveo sounds more exotic. Hahahaha

Not to sure about Zora for a name.. Maybe go with Emma which you like and make her middle name Zora if your really that big of a Corvette guy.
Just remember things change in life.
I was a die hard Corvette guy and still love the Corvette but my Callaway sit in the garage more than my 458 as the 458 is just more fun to drive.
So now I am a huge Ferrari guy too.
Good luck to you and your wife. Exciting time I am sure.

Congrats! Now the real question is what if she goes in labor as reveal starts? Watch reveal or be in baby room? Zora...only if you buy her a C10 for her sweet 16!

um, wrong way. Mercedes was named after an employee's daughter, already extant.
The name Zora is a girl's name of Arabic, Slavic, African origin meaning "dawn"
Dawn is lovely, Wouldn't want any relative of mine named after a product built by GM.
Poor Duntov, Russian equivalent of a boy named Sue. No wonder he carried a gun.
Wishing you a lovely, healthy baby!

How about Zora spelled backwards (Aroz)? Pronounced “A Rose”. Fitting for a beautiful baby girl...
