Zeke?

[Sarah Lou 80]

Trying to think of boys names to go with my little boys name Jarvis?

I really want something a bit different but not too out there. Our boy was 3 days old before we named him and there were no other boys names on the list.

I think I like the name Zeke but as an actual name, not shortened from Ezekiel (although I like it, I think it's too religious sounding for oh!)

I don't know if it rolls off the tongue well, for example, I imagine calling out to them - 'Jarvis! Zeke!) and it doesn't seem right.

What do you think?

for some reason it sound like a vegetable to me

example -
'hey hunny can you stop by the shop and pick up:
1 tin of bean
a loaf of bread
a squash
a zeke
and
a jar of tomato puree'

I'm not a huge fan. But I don't really like Z names at all.

I love it! We seriously discussed Zeke and likely would have chosen it except that our last name starts with "K" and that made it awkward.

The kid would have character!

If you like it, go for it.

I couldn't personally as I had a friend in primary school who was obsessed with the name Zeke and she used to make up all these stories and there'd always be a character called Zeke. It just made the name kooky to me, but everyone has a story about a name!

I like the name Zeke. My cousin has a baby boy Zeke as his full name. They figured why name him Ezekiel when they would always call him Zeke anyway? The name suits the little man a lot

I like it as nick name, but not as a legal name.
