I'd go with Zipporah. Any girl named Delilah will have people singing "Hey There Delilah" to her for the rest of her life, and the biblical connotations aren't the most pleasant either.

Zipporah's cool. Delilah is one I'd avoid.

I love both, but I find Delilah a teeny bit too frilly, and I prefer Zipporah spelled Tziporah. It's gorgeous and it goes amazing with Sefra (which is lovely!)

Zipporah is pretty (I've liked it since I read Elie Wiesel's book "Night"; his little sister Tziporah and his mother Sarah were the first of his family to die)Delilah is a lovely name, but it still smacks of the tart who brought Samson to ruin... but then, it's better than Jezebel.

I love Zipporah and would probably use it. Delilah has a nice sound, but still holds ties to the Biblical brat. I would steer clear of it for that reason. My vote goes to Zipporah for Sefra's sister.

I'm not a fan of Zipporah, but Delilah is lovely (and Sefra is a beautiful name)
