Zoë...? Too dated?

[PollyJane]

Opinions would be great.

I told my aunt and she likes it, but thinks it is a very ''early nineties'' name...?

And what middle names (2 or three syllable to go with surname Grey)

[LynetteScavo]

Actually, I think it's one of those names which is almost a classic.....I went two Zoe's who were born in the 70's, and it was on my name list when pregnant in the late 90's, early 2000.

[bootsycollins]

Gorgeous name, randomly I've always fancied being called Zoe myself.

[InspectorRebus]

Lovely, middle name Annabel

[PoppyWearer]

It's a great name. Not mine, have a friend called it, and agree it's one if those names that seems timeless.

[JumpingJackSprat]

I like it. i saw a baby zoe not so long ago, made a lovely change from all the isabels and olivias.

[pinkpudding]

I love it too. My friend's 2year old is a Zoe.

[cookielove]

My friend has a 4 year old (cannot believe she is that age already) who we all call ZoZo

[LousThighBurn]

I love it, there was a baby Zoë on the ward when DS was born 2 years ago. I think it ages well.

I like Eden or Alice as middle names, but Alice would mean her initials would spell ZAG? Unless you added another name in there too? Not sure if that would bother you but I notice things like that.

[cookielove]

Sorry meant to say we i think it is adorable

[sleepingbeautiful]

I like it. I know a 36 year old and a 5 year old. I don't think it's 90s name.

[BikeRunSki]

I think of it very much as a name of the mid 70s, as y sister was one of 8 Zoes in her year at school. I've met two baby Zoes recently and really liked it- as someone said, lovely change from Evie/Grace/Niamh/Amelia. My sister has 2 x 3 syllable middle names, but I am not going to out myself by telling you them!

[dozily]

I like it too, and know a 5-year-old Zoe

[GreyTS]

Not dated I hope, I have a 2 year old Zoë, only know one other around here (Ireland). My Zoë's middle name is Eleanor

[Southeastdweller]

Love it. Almost classic status and not common.

[justhayley]

I love it, went to school with a Zoe Elizabeth - now 29.
I think it's a name that could be considered a classic it's timeless, not fashionable not old lady just well classic

[TheBirdsFellDownToDingADong]

I think it's lovely. And very underused.

Not dated, because to become dated, it had to be uber popular (Karen, Louise, Emily, Ava, Finlay, Joshua etc) and Zoe I don't think ever was.

It's great!

[SwishSwoshSwoosh]

I think Zoe is a truly lovely name.

[OrangeFootedScrubfowl]

I like it, I don't think it belongs too much to any time.

[Theironfistofarkus]

Like it too. Pretty name

[JumpingJackSprat]

There you go OP i think you may have the first unanimous baby names thread!

[lollypopsicle]

It's on our list for this baby as a possibility so obviously I like it! I also met a baby Zoe the other day.

[JojoMags]

I love it. I think it sounds classic but also fresh iyswim? I wouldn't associate with any decade.

[cantbloodywellchoose]

No, not dated at all. Gorgeous name!

[OrlaKiely]

It goes with the surname, but I don't like it as a name, particularly. Not sure why.

I'm interested to know how people do the umlaut on top of the e though!
