Zachary
I was wondering, what do you think of the name Zachary? What kind of boy do you see before you? And are there any other nick names besides Zac?

Love, love, love. It's in my top 2 boy names. I prefer Zack as a nickname.

While I like the nn Zac, I cry inside when I hear about another Zachary. Usually because the parents announce it like they have just discovered a never-before-heard name or they say "You never hear it anymore." Really? I have a cousin and a nephew with this name. I see a boy who gets into trouble because he does naughty things on purpose. I also picture Zac from the original Battlestar Galactica so that's where it gets its redeeming qualities for me :) As for a different nn how about Cary?

It's okay. I picture an athletic and outgoing boy. I think Zac, Zach, and Zack are pretty much the only nicknames. Maybe Zeke.

I like Zachary. It flirts with making it to my favorites list. I picture a blond haired, blue eyed boy who is charismatic, laid back, a bit of a risk taker. Zac/Zack/Zach is the most obvious but maybe Harry or Zeke.

For some reason I have always disliked this name. I could never understand why so many people like this name. Same with Joshua. I used to know twins named Zach and Josh always thought it was a waste to use these names on cute little boys.

My nephews are Zachary and Joshua and I know another set of brothers names Zachary and Joshua.

Haha...I'm due in less than a month and if it is a boy, it will be Joshua. Guess we have opposite tastes in names.
