History & Origin
Zackari is one of many 1990s respellings of Zachary, whose root is the biblical Zechariah, 'the Lord has remembered.' The name honors an Old Testament prophet, and the Zackari spelling reflects the decade's taste for individualized versions of top names.
Zackari stayed rare while Zachary itself was very common, reaching its own small high around 1998. A boy named Zackari then is a young adult now, and the spelling reads as an of-its-moment personalization rather than a traditional form.
