# "Personality" of Zoe

## Girl Names
We’re considering **Zoe** for our little girl due in **August**. It’s not a name I’ve ever considered, but it seems to fit. I was trying to think of **Zoe**’s I’ve met and was surprised to realize that I’ve never actually met one! It’s so popular, but the only **Zoe** I know of is the actress. **How** would you describe the personality and/or physical traits of someone named **Zoe**?

I think it’s great that you’re considering **Zoe**! 😊 My oldest is **Zoe** **Grace** & she’ll be 6 in less than a month. **Zoe** means “vivacious, lively.” She certainly lives up to that! Don’t let that turn you off from using the name though. My **Zoe** is the spitting image of her father & her father is all fun & games 90% of the time & both her parents are rather stubborn. LOL
That said, regardless of the child’s name, I believe the parents' behavior plays a huge role in shaping the personality of the child. And the personality isn’t set until age 5.
Our **Zoe** is rather persistent & determined (usually a good thing), shy (just like I was), extremely picky eater (just like I was) & ALWAYS having fun (just like her father).
**Zoe** was never a name I considered either; until my husband had watched an episode of *Rolie Polie Olie* & thought the little Zowie character on there was so darn cute. The name definitely had to grow on me, but it certainly fits. But the **Grace** part hasn’t made her any more graceful. LOL I think that’s more for me when I’m using her full name; kinda reminds me to calm down some. LOL 😊
**Hope** that helps you some. Oh, and there’s also **Zoe** from *Sesame Street*.

I always think of **Zoe**’s as being very girly, fun, lively, and a little bit of a diva.

My image of a **Zoe**: spunky, a bit mischievous, quirky, creative, and artistic. I’ve always pictured a fair-haired child with this name for some unknown reason but I guess that’s because I’ve never met one. 😊
