  1. We chose the name because it is Biblical, means God Remembers. We wanted a name that was not related to family, didn’t start with a vowel, and was biblical. We love that it is unique and not a popular name being used right now.

  2. Zechariah name from the bible meaning “God remembered”

  3. Zechariah means “God remembered,” and my husband and I kept up with family tradition of biblically naming the children. He became our “rainbow baby,” after we had a miscarriage and struggled to get pregnant again. He felt his name is perfect, because God remembered us as we prayed to get pregnant.

  4. I was worried, at first, about the similarity and possible confusion between Zechariah and Zachary or Zachariah, but it hasn’t been an issue. I also wanted to make sure his nickname was Zech, not Zach. We love his name!
