I am aware of Zadie Smith.
The reason I even mentionned it was that my BIL lived in England and his first wife was English. One of her son's was named "Illinois." They all came over here for the wedding and I mentionned that I was from Illinois. New SIL had no idea what I was talking about. She and her first husband had named their son after Illinois Jacquet (I'm not sure if I'm spelling it correctly). He was a famous jazz musician. They had no idea from where the name came of that Illinois had any other meanings.
If you want to call her Zadie though (which is also nice), use that as a first name so she's not having to say "Well my real name is....". I have one of those names and I wish my parents would have just picked one or the other.
