Its etymology is uncertain, as it is a contemporary coinage likely inspired by names like Zoe or the fashionable '-ii' ending seen in other modern names. Without a traditional meaning or historical roots, Zoii represents the creative freedom parents exercise in naming, often prioritizing sound and visual appeal over historical or linguistic precedent.
