To the person who said this name doesn't suit brunettes: uh, hello, it is an ARABIC name! Since brunettes are the norm in that part of the world this name is perfect for dark-haired women. I'm guessing the person who made that comment does not know the origins of this name and is only aware of it because of Farrah Fawcett.

My cousin's name is Farrah. She was named after her dad, Farrell. I think that's really neat that they put a feminine twist on the male name. It's not my favorite name in the world but it totally suits my cousin.
I like this name. It's quite pretty and underused. The recently deceased Farrah Fawcett was beautiful, and I think maybe more people will be using her name in honor of her.
Ever since I heard this name as James Gandolfini's little girl's name in "Get Shorty", I've thought it was beautiful. I foresee it becoming more popular in the wake of Farrah Fawcett's death.
To whoever said it's unsuited for brunettes, you couldn't be more wrong. My name is Farrah, I am brunette, and I was not named after Farrah Fawcett, but rather named Farrah because my parents thought it was a pretty name that suited me when I was born, Thank you.
