herhonesty, some British people seem to be obsessed with labelling names according to how 'chav' or 'posh' they are. I don't get it either and would hope that most people wait until they meet a person before judging them, purely on the basis of what name their parents chose many years ago.

I like it actually. Should've been on our list for DS3 - would've gone nicely with our older boys names!

Zain for Asian boys is fine, Zane for others not.
IMO, people do put names into boxes. Miles and Hugo are posh boys, Alfie and Liam are not. In the same way, Lucinda and Marguerite are posh girls, Ruby and Jessica are not.
I've got one of those girls names.

I know a lovely Zane.

Wouldn't use it myself (as v. traditional me) but I don't think its particularly chavvy, modern and quirky but not sure it's chavvy.
