    I like it, just not the spelling. Try Zakriya, Zakhria, Zackriya, Zachariah, Zacariya ~ something easier to spell

    Not with that spelling. Zachariah, the original spelling, would be much preferable. I hate "unique" spellings like that. Studies have shown that people with such name spellings are viewed as unprofessional. Don't do that to a child.

    Is it a fancy way of spelling Zachary? With the "a" on the end it is like a girl's name.

    Name, Yes. Spelling, No. it just looks like you don't know how to spell Zachariah.

    Love the name but hate the spelling. It looks really tacky and as if you're trying too hard to be "yoo-neek". Zachariah would be just lovely however.

    I love Zachariah but I don't like your spelling. The original is best :)

  • 8 years ago

    I have no idea what it is supposed to be. Is it Zachariah? If so, I do not care for the spelling.

    Try zhakariyo so his nickname can be zhak or riyo :)
