Zakarie

Zakarie is a masculine name that represents a variation of Zachary or Zechariah, both derived from the Hebrew name 'Zekharyah,' meaning 'God has remembered.' This spelling variation gives the traditional name a slightly more distinctive or international feel, potentially reflecting French influence. While less common than the standard Zachary, Zakarie maintains the same Biblical connections to the father of John the Baptist in Christian tradition. The name has gained modest usage in recent decades as parents seek unique spellings of familiar names. Zakarie offers the friendly nickname options of Zak or Zeke while providing a slightly unexpected twist on a recognizable classic.

Pronounced zak-uh-REE.

As of October 2026, Zakarie ranked #7213 in US births in 2024 SSA, peaked at #4666 in 1997.
