Shlama,
the "zeus" ending has nothing to do with paganism. it is merely the effect of transliterating a Greek transliteration of an Aramaic transliteration of a Hebrew name. furthermore, proof of this is that Zeus is pronounced Dia in the Greek texts of Acts. the form of Zeus is a more modern pronunciation and cannot be used to link any Scriptural name to paganism.
hope that clarifies! <!-- s
