Help[Opinions] Zachael
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.)

Zakael would probably give the most intuitive pronounciation. My first thought was that this was a variant/rhyme of Rachel/Rachael.

The name in itself has a nice feel to it, and it looks nice too. However, the pronunciation might be confusing. Maybe change the spelling to accommodate the one you'd like? You could also do a ck or k instead of ch.
I like the k sound to the name, so I'm not a fan of the ZAH-hee-el pronunciation, especially not if there's a ch in the spelling. Another way to say it, which you didn't mention, would be Zack-el.

Zakiel probably helps with spelling and pronunciation. Zaccai is a nice name too. Zak a el would work for spelling and pronunciation too

Hi Binx !!!
Personally I think that the problem of this name is the pronounciation.
How to pronounce it? I personally would use zak-a-EL or also ZAK-ə-el.
It is simplier to pronounce than Zacharel and it's a nice refreshing of the Biblical names.
I personally would not use it but..it's ok!
