What is the meaning of the name zackery ?

The baby name zackery is a Male name , 3 syllables long and is pronounced /ˈzækəri/ (ZAK-ə-ree).

zackery is Hebrew in Origin.

Zackery is a modern English respelling of Zachary, ultimately derived from the Hebrew personal name Zekharyah (Zechariah), meaning "Yahweh has remembered" or "the Lord remembers." The name traveled into English via Greek Zacharias and Latin Zacharias, appearing in Scripture for a post-exilic prophet and, in the New Testament, the father of John the Baptist (Zechariah). Adopted in Britain by Puritans and kept in use through Zachary Taylor's U.S. presidency, it surged again in North America in the 1980s-1990s, when alternative spellings like Zackery gained currency.

Common variants include Zachary, Zachery, Zackary, Zachariah, and Zechariah; international forms span Zacharie (French), Zacarias (Spanish), Zaccaria (Italian), Zakariya (Arabic), and Zakhar/Zakhariy (Russian). Short forms and nicknames - Zack, Zac, and Zak - are frequent. Pronounced ZAK-uh-ree, Zackery preserves the biblical sense of divine remembrance with a contemporary twist.
