Zoe, with the umlat over the e. It's the correct spelling and it looks the best (beside the fact that Zooey is Zoooo-ey, to Zo-ey in pronunciation and was the name of a male character in a rather well-known book).

ZoeOnly Zoe or Zoë.I dislike all the other spellings. Zoey looks too much like it's trying to cash in on Joey. The name seems 10 times much younger and cutesy when spelled Zoey.

Zoe and Zoe only. I think any other spelling looks stupid!! I really dislike Zooey, makes me want to say "ZOO-ee", like a Zoo!!

Nothing except ZoëThat's the original spelling (yes, with the accent). Anything else looks at best innocently ignorant and at worst downright kre8iv. Zooey, Zoie, Zowie all complicate pronunciation too.Zoé (zo-AY according to BtN) is the French version. I like that version too.Miranda
