Firstly, its your child so you name him/her whatever you like.

You asked for opinions though so...

Is Zachary a bad name? No. It's a lovely, solid name. Is Xakery? Yes it just looks, to be honest, like a 13 year old having a baby and naming the child. To me it is just hideous. I'm sorry. However, the nXame spoken is nice, the shock horror only comes when seeing it written down. However, think 20 years down the line and CV's, studies show that names can effect people getting a job. Is an employer more likely to employ a Zachary than a Xakery? Yes

Xoelle is not quite as bad, it looks more passible, though Zoelle is still much better and a really nice name. I don't like Aliyah.

If you really love the spellings, go for them, but I think honestly, you need to expect that yourself, and you child, will get some negative reactions.
