Baby Names

Testing the waters

What do you think of:

Zachary Anthony

Danica Marie

Anthony and Marie are family names.  Our last name begins with D and is two syllables and pretty common.

Also thoughts of the spelling of Zach with an h instead of a k?  I believe with an "h" is the historical, original way to spell it and I prefer that but am curious if others have opinions on this.

Re: Testing the waters

  • I like the names but I'm not sure I like Zachary and Anthony together - they sound too much alike (in terms of 3 syllables ending in a y).

  • I really like Zachary, but am not crazy about it paired with Anthony. I don't like the -ee sound at the end of both. And I think Zach with an "h" is just fine.

    LOVE Danica Marie - very pretty!

  • Both are very nice, acceptable names, but I think they're both a tad boring.

    Yeah I agree with you.  Maybe we will use a different family name than Anthony because I really like Zachary and my husband has somewhat chosen the past two names.

  • I also agree with pps - Zachary Anthony sound too similar, but Zachary is nice.  I really like Danica Marie.

  • I agree that the two 3 syllable names sounds funny.

    Plus Zachary Anthony and your two syllable last name doesn't flow well to me. You may want to stick with a single syllable MN to balance the 3 syllable FN.
