Comments for ZACHARY:

I like this name because the perfect nickname for it is Zack and I want to name my son either that or Leonardo when I'm older.

When I think about the name Zachary I think bad-boy with brooding eyes.

Zachary or Zack is a very ugly name. I don't know why anyone would ever want to name their son this.

I had always liked the name Zachary but when we were thinking about naming one of our sons this name, people kept telling us how much they hated the name so we named our son Adam.

I like the name Zachary for some reason, but the origin has always confused me. See, the word 'zachari' (ζάχαρη) is Greek for 'sugar', and even if the words are pronounced differently, the name Zachary always makes me think of 'Zachari'.

I love this name. It is so nice and much better than Zackary or Zack. I have a brother named Zachary and we call him Zachary or Zach. It looks so much better than with a k.

This is my cousin's name but I don't really like it. However I think it is really cool what an above poster said about Zachary being sort of connected to the Greek word for sugar, because my name is sort of related to the Chinese word for chocolate, so it is kind of interesting that two cousins would have such "sweet" names, by total coincidence (I mean our parents didn't plan that or anything).

I like Zachary! Maybe when I'm older I'll name my son Zachary then he could go by Zack or Zach.

It is a nice name, and I like how it sounds, but I think it is getting WAY too common for me. It wasn't as common when I was little, but today it is more common than I thought. I do like the nickname Zack or Zach.

This is my brother's name. It's cute, but it's way too common for me, I much prefer Zachariah. I often wonder what my parents were smoking when they named him.

Although the name does have a hard sound to it, I still think of metrosexual high school boys when I hear this name.

This is a nice name, mainly for youth. I've known some cute Zach's. But, it's hard to picture an old man with this name.

I really like this name. I think it is a strong boys name. I plan to use it as a middle name with "William." I don't know where people are getting the impression of the brooding metrosexual. When I think of a Zachary I think of a very energetic, fun-loving boy.
