I like it. It was on my favorites for a long time. Then there was some celeb named Zayn ... I'm unfamiliar, but the existence of a mononymous celebrity Zayn put me off the name Zane as a baby name. I don't think of Zane as the same name, but it sounds the same and I don't like that people might hear it as the same. I agree with Kaesy it's got a cowboy vibe, but also seems meant to be "cool" ... maybe because of the Z. I'd be willing to name a boy Zane. and I'd think it was interesting on a boy or young man. But it wouldn't be near the top of my baby name list.

I think Zane James is too much of an almost-rhyme and invites accidental spoonerisms (Zame Janes, Jane Zames etc). I'd only use a combo like that if I were just super committed to the middle name and didn't care about flow. Which happens. Zane Harold James >> Zane James Harold.
