DH has a desire to have a Z boys name but I'm not completely sold. But what do you think of these?

Zeke
Zac (Zak/Zack/Zach) or Zachariah (or variants)
Zain (Zayn/Zaine/Zane)
Zaid
Zavier
Zeff
Zeb/Zebedee

Zeke, Zac and variants - like. Nice, strong names.

Zain, Zaid, Zavier, Zeff - dislike (unless you spelled it Xavier)

Zebedee - not so keen, but Zeb - like. If the Magic Roundabout link bothers you, you could always name him Zebedee but call him Zeb.

What about Zadok, Zebulun, Zeus, Zeno, Zoltan or Ziv? They're all real names.

Actually, I quite like Zeno.

I think Zachariah/Zakariya is lovely, and has good nn potential.

Zebedee would make me think "Magic Roundabout", Zeke/Zico both strike me as nns for Eziekiel, Zane doesn't do it for me (sorry) nor does Zaid. I've never come across Zeff, and would be concerned it would be taken as something kr8ive (which might not bother you, of course). Xavier isn't a "z" name, really.

You might also like to think about: Zadok, Zarathustra, Zeno, Zlatan and Zdenko?

Yep he was the jack-in-the-box but he is also the father of StJohn and StJames

Ezekiel -Zeke would be nice?

Zain, Zaid, Zavier (Xavier) and Zeff are awful!

Zebedee, is that not a character from The Magic Roundabout?
