What do you think of the name Zachael for a boy? I love and would probably use it.
I've been pronouncing three different ways: ZAH-ki-el, ZAH-hee-el (no k), and ZAH-kai-el (long i, second syllable).
I also like the spelling with the C omitted: Zahael.
I think it's a very strong and unusual name for a male, and it has tones of Michael, Gabriel, Raphael, etc.
I've seen it used on the internet as a surname, but I was mostly inspired as it being more of an amalgamation of Michael and Zachary. I considered the spelling Zacchael, but I believe it looks a but too rotund compared to Zachael.
I have always liked similar Ezekiel, but I'm a bit reticent to use it because the vowels are a little too pinched for me; Zachael seems to soften this problem.
I also like the nickname Zak. (No C.)
