[Closed] is "Zane" a real name?

Dunno but that 'magican' just shocked the wife

😆

I know a 'Zane'......

when did it become a name?
I might start inventing them, and maybe selling them

Why not??

My middle name is Joost...

And my fathers' was Oz..

Both very common where I was born... 😀

where were you born, it wernt round this way!!!

i like 'Jethro' and its 'real' man!

I like 'Jude' and wait for it.......... Alias

But that said, naming kids is like a 'branding' session. That's why mine are named Kirsty, Matthew and Grace.....

epo and 'slapper, good names, proper names!

I would love to know a girl called 'slapper'

expat I know loads of 'em!!!

Zane Grey was called Zane. Obviously. He wrote cowboy stories and went fishing. So it must be a proper name.

I've just googled Zane Grey and he was born in Zanesville!

My name's Shane - great when growing up in protestant NI!

'Your name's Shane isn't it? That's a rather Catholic name if you don't mind me saying'

Thanks Mum and Dad, thanks a bunch..........

Joost and Oz sounds like Seth efrikan names. 😀

Better than 'Ruby', 'Maud' and 'Ranger' - all names I have come across lately for small children. A bunch of future scullery maids and someone looking for Tonto..

Ruby and Maud are really old English names, which I've come across too.

My friend Zona, never forgave her parents for that name. Poor girl suffered because of it.

What's in a name. Can be anythin' you want can't it?
Who's to say whether it's real or not?

I call myself rumperdumpling. It's sexy.

Joost Winchman... 4x star and olympic bmx finalist but not south african

I know a "Zain", does that count? I have also worked with 2 people both called Atilla. One of them was really mild mannered and about 5ft5....didn't seem to fit.
