3 is the magic number......of kids!

Miscellaneous and Personal Stuff I Must Share
21

Just my 00.02…

Zora is too close to Zara, I’d stay away (sorry Miss Bianca). Most “z” female names seem to be Arabic; there’s Zainab, Zuleikha, Zoraida, Zahra, and Ziya, among others. Other Greek names besides Zoe are Zenais, Zenobia (the name of a totally badass Syrian queen), and Zosime.

For boys, I really like your pick of Zane; it reminds me of Zane Grey, the author. Otherwise, there’s Zachary (I prefer Zachariah), Zephyr, and Zebadiah. Or even Zander, short for Alexander, since you have a Zeke, short for Ezekiel.

22

Congratulations again “little brother”. Personally I like Zoe better than Zeta (unless you’re related to Catherine Zeta-Jones - she is beautiful though), but you know how plain and simple I am. I like Zane a lot and I also like Zach - you could always go for Zonk (just kidding). Good thing we get almost 9 months to figure these things out!

23

I now want to have a kid just so I can name it “Zonk”

24

Zander (male) or Zandra (female).

25

Big Sister knows that I always wanted to have 3 boys named Zeke, Zach, and Zonk. Too bad the Mrs. won’t go for it.

26

I was friends with a girl, once upon a time, whose name was Zura (too close to your Zara). She had brothers named Zeb (Zebulon) and Zion.

Their last name began with a Y.

27

I forgot; I know someone who got to pick his own name when he was 13. The name he picked? Zuriel.

I like Zuriel.

28

3 little girls of 2,4 and 6 here.

Your life as a parent is over, you are now officially a referee!

29

Since Zane reminds me of a city nearby for both of us, moejuck, I think I’d have to recommend “Y-Bridge.”

You know you want to! :smiley:

Congrats.

Julie

how about Zelda, or Zack?

31

If it’s Zack, then we know he’ll end up a Legomaniac…

32

Great, thanks! I told my husband no one remembered that when he voiced his concerns about naming our son Zachary.

33

Congratulations!

As for the name, what’s wrong with Zoe? Plenty of people are called Zoe.

34

I know a woman named Alexandra who goes by “Zaz”, which has a nice ring to it.

I would give top recommendation to “Zelda”, the name of my late grandmother, an incredibly classy woman in every way, except that it’s now been co-opted by the video game…

35

What’s wrong with that?
I plan to name my child Mario if it’s a boy, and Samus Aran if it’s a girl.

36

That’s silly! Everyone knows Luigi was the cool brother.

37

Hmm…
Zorak
Zeus

here’s one that fits either way…

Zuul :wink:

Congrats, btw :slight_smile:

38

Might I suggest Zinaida (zi-NYE-da) or Zarya (zar-YA) for a girl? Lovely Russian names - ‘Zarya’ means “dawn”, to boot.

Can’t think of any boy’s names, but I’d like to second Zebulon. You can take him to Pike’s Peak.

39

Congrats, moejuck!

so where do I send this bill then?

40

I had a wonderful aunt named Zada. I’ve always liked Zoe and Zoey, and I went to school with a way cool girl named Zelda Zinn.

For boys I like Zach, and Zeke.

Congrats! I only had one, and I can’t imagine what it’s like to have three! Good luck! Thank God mine is mostly grown up now.
