is the name Zoro usable for a baby boy?
I definitely donāt think itās too out-there, the sound is simple and mostly familiar, but itās the kind of name where I would wonder about the origin & how it was chosen? It would make me think that itās either a name from the parent(s)ā culture that Iām not familiar with, or that it was probably chosen because it sounds ācoolā. Also, Iām not sure how prevalent of a reference this is in other cultures, but it did make me think of the chatacter [name_m]Zorro[/name_m] right away.
It has a very fantasy/sci-fi aesthetic to me. I think I have heard of [name_m]Zorro[/name_m] the character so seeing Zoro did feel like a character name but I honestly couldnāt place it without having to search [name_m]Zorro[/name_m] first lol
It also feels sort of like a nickname style name. Like I could see it as a nickname for a [name_m]Zoren[/name_m], [name_m]Zorian[/name_m] or [name_m]Zorion[/name_m] if I didnāt know Zoro was the full name
That said I think it has a very cool vibe to it, and if I came across someone named Zoro I wouldnāt judge them or anything negative, but I would be so curious as to how they got their name!
@chelsia @tallemaja thanks for your thoughts! I do know of the legend of [name_m]Zorro[/name_m] character, but my husband actually loves it because of Roranoa Zoro from the anime One Piece. I personally donāt care about the associations since theyāre not obviously bad or offensive, but I just canāt decide if it feels like a real name. I may have to think more about [name_m]Zorian[/name_m] or [name_m]Zoren[/name_m]- I was kind of hoping I could find a longer form and I like these a lot.
I had to look both of them up. I think I have heard of the [name_m]Legend[/name_m] of [name_m]Zorro[/name_m] but Iāve never seen the movie, and I havenāt heard of One Piece before
They definitely arenāt bad associations like you said! And if you guys have positive associations to the name personally then I think it is more of a reason to use it
[name_m]Zoren[/name_m] and [name_m]Zorian[/name_m] are definitely great options to give Zoro as a nickname! They feel like a more modern take on names like [name_m]Soren[/name_m] and [name_m]Dorian[/name_m] to me. Those are the only ones I could think of off the top of my head but if you really do want a longer name I think either are great or you could always look up ānames starting with Zorā and Iām sure you could find other options if these arenāt quite right for you!
Iām glad I could help out
