Could the name of the street be a time-corrupted variant of the name of Zephyrus, the God of Slight Breezes? Perhaps a temple might once have stood here.
The street is also where the copy of the Scone of Stone that was - apparently - stolen from the Dwarf Bread Museum on Whirligig Alley was found. It's located in the Dolly Sisters area parallel to Upper Broadway.
