Zachery

Boy name · 6 babies recorded · 1974–2025

Zachery: 6 babies born in Scotland since 1974, given to boys, peaking at 3 births in 2006.

A variant of the classic Zachary, Zachery traces its roots to the Hebrew name Zechariah, meaning “the Lord has remembered.” One of the best-known bearers is Zachery Ty Bryan, who played Brad Taylor on the hit sitcom *Home Improvement*. The name also appears in the form Zachery Levi, the actor who voiced Flynn Rider in Disney’s *Tangled*. While no major places take this spelling, the original Hebrew name inspired the city of Zechariah in the Old Testament. Parents often choose Zachery as a slightly more modern, simplified spelling of a timeless biblical name, giving it a fresh feel while retaining its deep spiritual meaning.
