I got such great responses to my post looking for alternatives to [name_m]Oscar[/name_m] that I thought I’d try again with another of my too-popular (plus taken by a family member) favourites: [name_m]Zachary[/name_m].
Please throw your ideas at me for slightly quirkier names which share [name_m]Zachary[/name_m]'s bouncy, lively, zippy sound. Thanks!
[name_m]Nathaniel[/name_m]
[name_m]Nicholas[/name_m]
[name_m]Andrew[/name_m]
[name_m]Gabriel[/name_m]
[name_m]Samuel[/name_m]

[name_m]Aaron[/name_m]
[name_m]Nathan[/name_m]
[name_m]Caleb[/name_m]
[name_m]Jonathan[/name_m]
[name_m]Jared[/name_m]
[name_m]Lucas[/name_m]
[name_m]Brendan[/name_m]
Well, I for one live [name_m]Joseph[/name_m] nn Zeph or Zep.
Other names: [name_u]Zephyr[/name_u], [name_u]Zelig[/name_u], [name_m]Zenon[/name_m], [name_f]Reza[/name_f], [name_m]Isidore[/name_m]…
The obvious suggestions are [name_m]Zachariah[/name_m] or [name_m]Zacharias[/name_m], but they do have more of a weightier vibe than just [name_m]Zachary[/name_m]. So here’s some other suggestions:
[name_m]Timothy[/name_m]
[name_m]Barnaby[/name_m]
[name_m]Jeremy[/name_m]
[name_m]Geoffrey[/name_m]
[name_m]Zebulon[/name_m]
Guiseppe
[name_m]Caspian[/name_m]
[name_m]Inigo[/name_m]
Zephan(iah)
[name_m]Malachi[/name_m]
[name_m]Nikolai[/name_m]
[name_m]Alaric[/name_m]
[name_m]Crispin[/name_m]
[name_m]Finnian[/name_m]
[name_m]Gregory[/name_m]
[name_m]Gideon[/name_m]
[name_m]Casimir[/name_m]
[name_m]Zebedee[/name_m]/[name_m]Zebediah[/name_m]
[name_m]Ptolemy[/name_m]
[name_m]Simeon[/name_m]
Thanks for the responses so far!
[name_m]Nathaniel[/name_m], [name_m]Isidor[/name_m], [name_m]Barnaby[/name_m], [name_m]Malachi[/name_m], [name_m]Nikolai[/name_m], [name_m]Casimir[/name_m] and [name_m]Zebedee[/name_m] are great alternatives - thanks!
Looking for something with the same rhythm/bounce/spikiness as [name_m]Zachary[/name_m], rather than less-popular traditional choices. I also thought of [name_m]Rafferty[/name_m], [name_m]Jacoby[/name_m] or [name_m]Malachy[/name_m] as examples - any more ideas?
