Comment left Aug 02, 2009: "My name is Zena, I live in Scotland. I was called after my godmother Tomasina, called Zena. She lives in US, although originally Scottish. I love my name, she hates hers. I love it cos people either remember it or forget it completely. Usually the people who forget it are not worth remembering. It's fun, different, unique, unusual, unpredictable and surprising. All like me. I have even met a black poodle and a golden labrador called Zena. They were special moments, since I love dogs. I have travelled a fair bit and its amazing how many times I have been asked, "Are you, Greek, Egyptian, African, Iranian bla bla. Anyway, Zena's are usually confident, strong, friendly, unique & independant sexy women. So I have been told!" (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Jul 04, 2009: "My name is Zena and I live in Columbus, Ohio.
I am 10 an I've never met anybody else named Zena. All my friends don't relize that it's kind-of an unusual name because they've called me that since we were young. If your name is Zena you proply get the warrior princess thing a lot except that is spelled with an "X" I really like my name it is very unique which makes my feel originil" (Report as inappropriate)

Our two friends, Mother and daughter, are from Trinidad and are named Zeena. It is fun when the four of us get together. We never know which of us people are talking to." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Jun 29, 2009: "I live in Alabama, USA and I am yet to meet another Zena. I'd really rather not, because I like the idea of being the only Zena here. I don't know how girls with common names can stand it. I love my name!!" (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Jun 28, 2009: "hey my name is xena but i spell it with a x i live in the united states and i like it cause its original:D" (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left May 22, 2009: "I have never meet anyone with the same name as Zena, and I have traveled all over the States. I enjoy it, but older people tend to call me Dena instead of Zena.There have also been a couple of times when my mail read Zennia instead of Zena. I believe that it is the female version of Xenos, which means stranger. Hence, hospitality towards strangers. Also, there is some Arabic history attached to it." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left May 09, 2009: "Hello all. I am another Zena from England. My mother gave me this name because her head girl at school was called that and she loved the name and it was different, the same reasons I have always loved it. Now of course,I often get called Warrior Princess, but I don't mind that at all. It's a great ice breaker. I have always understood the origin of my name to be Persian and to mean 'woman'. I have only ever met one other Zena in person." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Apr 24, 2009: "I am originally from eritrea, my name is spelled zena, but pronounced zenna. With double N. When people hear it the first time I aswell get the Xena warrior princess joke(not funny anymore). But I do like my name it's not a common eritrean name. My dad told me that in eritrean it means 'good news'. I've never met someone called zena, pronounced with double n's. Or even zena. I do know some people called zina." (Report as inappropriate)

Comment left Dec 29, 2006: "My baptised name is zinovia, as passed on from my greek generations. There is a greek-cyprian Saint Zinovia who died for Christ, my name day is on 30th October. I have grown up with Gina in Australia, i later changed it to Zina in late highschool and had many teasing me as Xena Warrior Princess..i came to eventually like it, but i have used other similar names such as Zena, Zinaida at times. I have cousins with the name Zina all of which are strong characters with confidence. I have met another greek Zinovia in australia which she uses Jenny..currently living in england i have heard it persian,scottish, russion name also. There was an arabic princess they say. In arabic zina means unmaritual sex and sin. In Morrocan Zina means beauty as a flower. in ancient greek it means life from Zeus. I believe it is nice to have a name which is unusual, since i like to be different." (Report as inappropriate)
Comment left Sep 15, 2006: "I have met 3 persons with my name excluding my mother who I am named after. Actually, our name is Alexzina but we go by Zina. People assume it's spelled with an "X" or Zena but I have met one person who spells it the same as I." (Report as inappropriate)
