...Zoe - am considering this and am wondering whether you think it is more popular with one demographic than another or not? What sort of a person is called Zoe?

Thanks!

I have a niece Zoe aged 5. Also know one in her mid 40s.

Zoe is a lovely purple name.
Where did that synesthesia thread go? [wink?]

ZOe is a lovely name.

Bit boho, middle class-ish, arty stuff at uni, that sort of thing.

I'd imagine a Zoe to come from a literary, arty background and to be very pretty. I don't know why.

I know a family with Zoe, Chloe and Joey. They are not posh.

Cornwall has a high % of Zoes compared to the rest of the UK. I consider it to be quite middle class.
It's lovely.

I know a Zoe, she's about 30 and is sort of middle class and lives in London. Nice name I think and not too popular!
