449.0. "Z names" by HLYCOW::NELSON (Sue Nelson) Thu Oct 05 1989 16:56

    
    Hello,
    
    I found this conference when I was expecting my first child.  Now
    I am writing for help for a friend.  They named their first son
    Zachary, because they liked the name.  Their second child came along
    and they thought it would be neat to also have this child's name
    begin with a Z.  The second being another boy, was named Zane.  Now
    they are expecting the third and want to continue with Z's but they
    are finding it difficult.
    
    After some searching, I've found:
    
      Zachary
      Zane 
      Zoe
      Zara
      Zelda
    
    Can you add any more??
    
    Thanks,
    
    Sue Nelson
    
    P.S. We named our little boy born January 31, 1989, Sean Michael Nelson

     I have a friend that has a little brother (12 yr.), his parents
    have a habit of finding original names. Well anyway, they named
    the boy... 
              Zion Rapheal.

    Thanks, for the suggestions.  I'll pass these on.  The baby
    is not due until February, so there's some time yet to decide.

    Thanks again,
    
    Sue

    a few more suggestions:
    
    Zee (I knew a woman with this name, and she loved it!)
    Zanya
    Zinnia
    Zena
    Zoya
    Zilli (German in origin)
