Zak

Zak is a boy's baby name of Hebrew origin, a short form of Zachary or Zachariah, from the Hebrew Zekharyah, meaning 'God has remembered.'

With over 1,500 recorded births, Zak is the stripped-down, energetic version of Zachary — a name that trades the longer form's dignity for immediate impact. The Z-opening alone gives it considerable visual punch, and its single syllable makes it one of the most confidently minimal names a boy can carry. It's the name that arrives first in any alphabetical list and leaves an impression that lasts.
