I love the name Zoe, but I could never use it since I have a cousin with this name. It can definitely grow with the child and be a great name on an adult, for sure.
I think Zoe can age perfectly well. It's a very old name, not some modern cutesy creation. I love it, especially because of the meaning.

I really can't stand Zoe...it is too cutesy and whingey sounding to me. Besides that, it is too darn popular.
But putting that aside, I think it is a name that grows (I have a friend named Zoe who is 18 now and she was named for her grandmother, Zoe).
Zoe Esmeralda would be a nice combo

Can Zoe grow into adulthood? Zoe Caldwell, grand dame of British theater says it can. Zoe Wannamaker, another fine British actress, wears it well. And don't forget President Clinton's failed nominee for Attorney General, Zoe Baird.
Zoe is a classic. Just because it's being discovered by a new generation doesn't mean it won't stand the test of time beautifully. I've loved it for years. I don't think it gets enough respect as a name.
Zoe Elena is my favorite combination, with Zoe Melina a close second. But your list has such great mn possibilites like: Zoe Esmeralda, Zoe Anastasia, Zoe Alessandra, Zoe Arabella, Zoe Isabella. It's endless. :-)

I personally can't picture a Zoe over the age of 15. Who knows, though? With all the Zoes out there now, it could very well sound like a grownups name in a few years.

I like Zoe, and it can definitely grow with a child, I think. But be aware that it's commonly used for dogs--we have two people at work who have dogs named Zoe and recently had two babies born at work (at a hospital) named Zoe, and a separate 3rd person commented that that was a dog's name. :-/ I don't agree but that might be a 'thing' for some people.
