What does the name Zacharie mean?
Zacharie is a spelling of Zachary, pronounced the same way, so it shares Zachary's meaning and origin.
Zachary is the English form of Zechariah or Zacharias, from Hebrew Zekharyah, which DMNES and Wiktionary gloss 'God (Yahweh) has remembered'. In the Bible Zechariah is a prophet with his own book, and in the New Testament Zechariah is the father of John the Baptist. DMNES also lists an 8th-century pope and finds the name in the Wycliffite Bible as Sacarie. Zach and Zack are its short forms, and Zachariah and Zechariah are fuller biblical spellings.
