I am thinking about [name_f]Zoe[/name_f] as a middle name for [name_f]Margot[/name_f], I like that it is short and spunky.
I think I should stick with the original [name_f]Zoe[/name_f], but visually, Zoe seems a little abrupt to me (and when I look at it my brain wants to say “Zo”). I really like [name_u]Zooey[/name_u] (the literary connotation is appealing to me), but I am not sure if it will just be confusing to spell it this way. I am not such a fan of [name_f]Zoey[/name_f], even though it is the most popular version right now.
What spelling do you like best?
What do you think of [name_f]Zoe[/name_f]? Is it still fresh and spunky or is it done?
Which do you like best, out of:
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Zoe[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Holiday[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_u]Remy[/name_u]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f]
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f] is the only one that sounds good to me. I also suggest [name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Rosemary[/name_f] and [name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Amelie[/name_f].
Hiya, Im voting [name_f]ZOEY[/name_f]! It is my sisters name… she is 7:) so a little biased but as my mum and dad always said when they were picking names when [name_f]Zoe[/name_f] came up my dad said to him that just looked like [name_m]ZO[/name_m] when you add the y you get the ee ending sound Or there is [name_f]Zoie[/name_f] or Zowie I know a zowie too. [name_f]Hope[/name_f] that helped on the spelling part… [name_u]Zooey[/name_u] to me is Zoo- ey so not a fan at all of that spelling.
I do prefer [name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Zoey[/name_f]
i do like [name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_u]Scout[/name_u] mind as you have atlas as your sons middle i like how the scout goes with the M name and also different like atlas.
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f] is adorable! In terms of the “[name_f]Zoe[/name_f], [name_u]Zooey[/name_u], [name_f]Zoey[/name_f]” situation, I like the original spelling the best. [name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Zoe[/name_f] is very cute. [name_u]Zooey[/name_u] reminds me of “zoo”, and the “y” in [name_f]Zoey[/name_f] seems kind of excessive, in my opinion. When in doubt, stick with the original.
I love the idea of [name_f]Margot[/name_f] with [name_f]Zoe[/name_f]. However, I dislike the clashing hard “O” sounds. [name_f]Mar[/name_f]-gOH ZOH-e. See what I mean? [name_f]My[/name_f] vote is for [name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f] or [name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_u]Remy[/name_u]. [name_m]Both[/name_m] are equally adorable.
I much prefer the [name_f]Zoe[/name_f] spelling. I have [name_f]Zoe[/name_f] on my long list. I love [name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Holiday[/name_f]. What a fun, spunky, unexpected combo.
I love [name_f]Zoe[/name_f], like [name_f]Zoey[/name_f], and dislike [name_u]Zooey[/name_u]… Looks like gooey, and I’m not even sure if its pronounced the same.
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Zoe[/name_f] is cute, but a bit heavy on the O’s. I think [name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f] is as cute and spunky, and sounds MUCH better. ([name_f]Margot[/name_f], [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f], and [name_f]Zoe[/name_f] are 3 of my very favorite names btw :))
[name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_u]Remy[/name_u] and [name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Holiday[/name_f] are fine, just nms.
I [name_u]LOVE[/name_u] [name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Zoe[/name_f]. [name_u]Zooey[/name_u] does have literary connotations, but it always looks like zoo-ee to me. [name_f]Zoey[/name_f] just seems unnecessary.
P.S. I think [name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Holiday[/name_f] is wonderful as well!
I think [name_f]Zoe[/name_f] is the most visually appealing. [name_u]Zooey[/name_u] looks like Zoo. I guess [name_f]Zoey[/name_f] isn’t so bad, but I think the extra -y is redundant. I think that [name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Holiday[/name_f] has the best flow, but I like [name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Zoe[/name_f] and [name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f] as well (I’m not a fan of word names, but I think [name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Holiday[/name_f] flows best, even though I like [name_f]Zoe[/name_f] and [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f] better as names). [name_m]How[/name_m] about [name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Ariadne[/name_f]?
I like that [name_f]Zoe[/name_f] is the traditional way to spell it but I agree that it is abrupt abd it also looks like just [name_m]ZO[/name_m] to me. [name_f]Zoey[/name_f] looks phonetically correct to me so I’ll vote [name_f]Zoey[/name_f]. I like [name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Holiday[/name_f] the most overall
I like [name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f] (although I think I would like like [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f] [name_f]Margot[/name_f] even better). [name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Holiday[/name_f] is sort of appealing too, even though it’s totally not the sort of thing I’d usually go for.
[name_f]Zoe[/name_f] is a pretty classic spelling, but for some reason my mind always says [name_m]Zo[/name_m] when I see it. It’s probably partially because of that terrible [name_f]Rachel[/name_f] [name_f]Zoe[/name_f] lady. But, I don’t think most people would assume it’s pronounced that way, plus it’s a middle name so how often would that really come up anyway?
[name_u]Zooey[/name_u] looks like Zoo-ey. Plus, in the [name_m]Salinger[/name_m] book the character was male and according to Nameberry the name was intended to be pronounced Zoo-ey. However, because [name_u]Zooey[/name_u] Dechanel is so famous right now and pronounces her name the same as [name_f]Zoe[/name_f]/[name_f]Zoey[/name_f], I bet people would assume that’s how you want it pronounced.
[name_f]Zoey[/name_f] is probably the most straight forward of the spellings, but I don’t find it particularly appealing either.
[name_m]Just[/name_m] don’t go with Zowie, that should totally be pronounced Zow-ee despite what [name_m]David[/name_m] [name_m]Bowie[/name_m] might think.
I think I prefer [name_f]Zoe[/name_f] out of [name_f]Zoe[/name_f], [name_u]Zooey[/name_u] and [name_f]Zoey[/name_f]. I tend to think of [name_u]Zooey[/name_u] as zoo-ee in my head. Though I don’t think anything’s wrong with [name_f]Zoey[/name_f] either. I also like [name_m]Zo[/name_m]ë.
I’ve never thought of [name_f]Zoe[/name_f] as fresh and spunky as it’s always been so popular where I live, however I can understand why a lot of people describe it that way.
While I don’t like [name_f]Holiday[/name_f] as a name, I find myself loving the sound of [name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Holiday[/name_f].
I like [name_f]Margot[/name_f] [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f] the best out of the four choices. In regard to spelling, [name_f]Zoe[/name_f] is the only one I would ever choose. Since [name_f]Margot[/name_f] has the “g” hanging letter, the invented “y” spellings make the combo look cluttered so I would stick with the original [name_f]Zoe[/name_f].
The spelling [name_u]Zooey[/name_u] makes me want to say Zoo eee, like gooey. The spellings [name_f]Zoe[/name_f] or [name_f]Zoey[/name_f] look much more appealing
