Life
Zo is a short-form name most commonly derived from the Greek name Zoe, meaning life. While often used as a nickname for names like Zoe, Lorenzo, or Alonzo, it has emerged as a minimalist, gender-neutral standalone name in its own right. It carries a modern, high-energy feel while retaining ancient etymological roots.
