Names like Zachary

Both DH and I love the name Zachary but unfortunately we are unable to use it. It’s the only name that we both liked so are struggling to come up with any other names. I like Harry and Charlie but DH vetoed and DH likes Jayden which I don't. Does anybody have any suggestions of names similar to Zachary that we both may like?

If you like more popular names like Harry and Charlie and he likes the sound of trendy Jayden - could you compromise with James or Jacob? (both popular classics with the "Jay" sound).

Or like others have said - there are are a few other well known names with a strong "Z" sound like Zachary - Isaac, Ezra, Xavier, (Ale)Xander, Zev, Ezekiel (Zeke) etc

Tobias
Elijah
Nathaniel

It's not like it, but my brother's are names Zachary and Corey.

Also, I don't know where this "chavvy" thing is coming from - I'm 32 years old and my brothers are 29 - in our lives we have only met one other Zachary, and one Zac. The name isn't that common so I can't imagine an influx of chavs called it, also who are we to call people chavvy, a baby cannot be "chavvy." - they will become what they will become.
