I really like this name. It’s my best friend’s name. I don’t know if I would have liked it otherwise. But he’s been my best friend since I was almost three. I call him Zach most of the time, but some people call him Zachary. It’s a good name.

As a Zachary myself, I love the name I chose. I go by Zach most of the time but every once in a while, hearing my full name is nice. I don't see a good argument for why it's a bad name to have. I've never seen too strong of a bad rep for it. I've never been picked on for it either. It may not roll off the tongue as good as other names but I feel like that suits my personality well.
All Zak/Zachs I've met have been awesome people. My youngest brother is named Zachary, and I call him either "Zach" "Zachy" "Zach Attack" and "Zachary". Zachary is nice but I try to avoid naming things with long names. People tend to cut it down so it's quicker to say, so I wish my mom just used the name Zak.
I like it a nice standerd name.
Zachary is a nice name, but I like being called zach.

I really don't like to be called Zachary because it is formal, too long, cringing, weird, and I don't see it as a part of my identity so yes I go by Zach cause I don't like the name Zachary. I declare that I will only answer to Zach and other names that you all call me I will ignore you until you call me Zach. I prefer to be called Zach not Zachary.
Doesn’t really sound like an adult‘s name, yet oddly it is such a dated name at the same time, pretty much anyone who has this name is well into adulthood but it still sounds like a little kid name.

Doesn't sound charming. Sounds immature. I don't like it much. While it feels masculine, not that bad, just nothing much interesting.

Kind of funny that this is a male name meaning sugar, even though it sounds like the word, when most 'sickly' names are usually female, like Charlotte, Emma, Alice, etc (no offense, those names are still pretty).
Cool.

Being a Zachary is an odd experience, one that has made me hate Zachary stereotypes, i.e. Zach is just that stoner guy at parties- you know, that one guy that is always judged like he's Shaggy from Scooby Doo, other than that I see nothing wrong with my name. I'm honest, caring, nonviolent. I have very twisted beliefs that settle around diesm and transhumanism. I wake up every day just like the rest of the world but because I am a Zach, I dunno, I feel like I just see the world differently. Like I can conquer the world if I really tried. I have always wanted to be remembered for something. Though I probably will never make a long lasting impact on the world.
I really like the name Zachary. The nickname Zach I love as well! I have met many Zachary’s in my life & all of them have been amazing nice boys! This makes me like it!
If you have this name you are a straight baller. Just being honest, it is so.

This name is wonderful.
Formerly I didn't consider it as a good name, especially in our country the way they pronounce it in the Swahili language, but after knowing this movie star Zac Efron I started to like it and consider it as a good name. I like the way the name sounds when it is shortened 'Zac' since I knew Zac Efron. I've never thought of calling any of my sons this name because I don't feel it as a good name. Nathan is the name that I like most in this world and I must name my son that name.
I knew a kid named Zachary, or Zach, back when I was just a kid, too. Everybody thought his was the most awesome name on that side of town and he was the coolest kid in school each year, K thru 12, by far, without a doubt. I heard he went on to win like 12 different radio station popularity contests, and that he now lives in a mansion with a bunch of gorgeous young females who fan him all day with fresh palm leaves while he sips Mai Tai's and tells fascinating stories from his days as a lifeguard/fireman. I wish I had his name. Oh, how I wish this wish. For Zachary is far better than Homer, or Dennis, or Flacco, or Bernie, or Woodrow, or even Boris. It seems like an automatic chick-magnet reserved for the coolest of cool's cool. Kinda like Sir Arthur Fonzarelli, Rambo, or Blaaze, but more like, Zachary. I heard the kid turned 21-years-old, eight times in-a-row. Awesome. To all the Zach's out there... I wish I was just like each one of you! Tell us some stories, please! Maybe I should change my name to Zachary and tell everyone I was born that way? I don't want to get in trouble. Love you guys!... Like, A LOT!
A perfect name to give to your son if you want him to be placed at the end of almost everything.
Omg I love the name Zachary so much! It's so classy and handsome and perfect. You can't go wrong with the nicknames Zack/Zac/Zach! This name ROCKS! :D.
This is my name, and I despise it. It is far too common. I would prefer to be named something like Jacen, Zekk, Perseus, Anakin, Merlin, Achilles -- anything but Zachary. Those are far superior, and much rarer. Besides, the name is too similar to Zacharias Smith for my liking,

This is my cousin's name but I don't really like it. However I think it is really cool what an above poster said about Zachary being sort of connected to the Greek word for sugar, because my name is sort of related to the Chinese word for chocolate, so it is kind of interesting that two cousins would have such "sweet" names, by total coincidence (I mean our parents didn't plan that or anything).
I love this name. It is so nice and much better than Zackary or Zack. I have a brother named Zachary and we call him Zachary or Zach. It looks so much better than with a k.
