      Remember Zuzu, the adorable little girl you watch every Christmas in "It's a Wonderful Life"? Here's a direct path to that nickname, a lot more zesty than the more familiar Susannah.
  2. Zigfrids
    • Description:

      Zigfrids is a masculine Latvian variant of the Germanic name Siegfried, composed of the elements 'sigu' (victory) and 'fridu' (peace), thus meaning 'victorious peace' or 'peace through victory.' This distinctive name carries the weight of ancient Germanic legends, most notably the hero Siegfried from the Nibelungenlied and Norse sagas. While uncommon globally, Zigfrids maintains cultural significance in Latvia and Baltic regions. The Latvian adaptation features the characteristic ending and phonetic shifts that distinguish it from other European variants. Despite its rarity in international contexts, the name evokes images of heroism, strength, and mythological prowess. Parents choosing this name often appreciate its strong historical roots and distinctive sound.
