Why not just call her "Zoey"? It’s a pretty name and all, but "Zooey" looks like it should be pronounced "Zoo-Ie)

Zooey is creative! I like Zooey Odelia best just because Odelia is a little more girly than the others, and Zooey needs a girly name to go with it. However, I do think that sometimes Zooey would get pronounced (Zoo-ee) Maybe Zoeey or Zoie would be less mispronounced, but if you’re set on it, use it! Good luck! :)

Because it’s my mom’s middle name and it’s spelt Zooey. My mom doesn’t have much time left and she’s very special to me, so I wanted to honor her.

I voted Odelia but I prefer Ophelia. Honor is a really cute mn idea, or even turning it around to Honor Zooey. GL!

Seriously, if you’re going to give her a first name like Zooey, you’ve got to give her a normal middle name. ie not something like Honor. If the only reason you want Zooey is to honour your mother, then name her something like Odelia Zooey. Your grandparents clearly thought it through and gave your mom Zooey as a MIDDLE name....

If it’s pronounced like Zoey...then spell it like Zoey. It will still honor your mother without giving your child added difficulties/ridicule throughout life.

I think you should spell it however you like. That is how the actress Zooey Deschanel spells her name. If you want to honor your mother, how about using her birth month or birth flower or gem as a middle name?

For example:

Zooey May
Zooey June
Zooey Pearl
Zooey Opal
Zooey Rose
Zooey Lily(an)
