Popular though Zoe has become, I still have to endorse it because it was my mother's name, and highly unusual at the time she was born and remained so for the entirety of her lifetime. Everyone thought my mom had a weird name and nobody, but NOBODY, ever said they liked it. I always felt a little defensive of it. I never thought I'd see it become popular. As far as I'm concerned, it can't become too popular because it deserves it, after its many years of being neglected and reviled, which I witnessed.

My vote is for Zoe.
