Zoey is an English spelling variant of the Greek name Zoe, derived from the Greek word zōē, meaning life. The name was adopted by early Greek-speaking Christians as a translation of the Hebrew name Eve, which carries the same essential meaning. It gained widespread use in English-speaking countries during the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries, largely as a modernized spelling that reflects common English pronunciation. Related forms include Zoe, Zoé, and Zoia.
