Now the zoo is holding a naming contest, with the public helping decide what to call her. Options include Aurora, Winnie, Deeya, which means light in Nepalese, or Mera, the name of a mountain peak in the Himalayas.
Voting is now open. The zoo says it plans to announce the little girl's name at noon on Thursday, September 19.
