If you seriously like the name zebedee, you could always buy a cat

names don't have to be shortened - my brother has got thru 55 years without andrew being shortened. both my boys have names which could be shortened, but aren't.

Far out is an understatement.
At my primary school Dominic was the geeky kid with the permanent green snot hanging out of one nostril. Therefore I am unable to like that name, nice as it may be in a parallel universe.

You don't have to shorten it though. I always think that if you're going to end up shortening the name, then why bother with the long version in the first place

ok, if you're gonna force me i would chose Dominic

As for maximillian - we had a boy called this at our local toddler group and he was a little shite I'm sure yours wouldn't be, but isn't it funny how we make associations with names

Zebedee?
