in reply to a message by Dawn
Zane can be a Venetian diminutive of Giovanni (the Italian form of John). Read here:

However I suspect the pronunciation would be very different to how it is pronounced in English.Zane is also a Latvian feminine name, a form of Zuzanna. Again, the pronunciation is different.
