Zebb - awesome nickname for a boy! If his initials were Z.B. how awesome would that be?!
Cotah (f) - Looks like a nickname for Dacota. Meh, it's okay.
Genette - I wonder what was wrong with Janette or Jenette or Jeanette or Jeannette?
Gunnel - part of a fish?
Constanze - I like Constance better in an English-speaking country, but Constanze is really pretty

Gunnel is an old Swedish name, common although not popular right now. It's a variant of Gunhild and means "fight; strife".
