Zekrom's name comes from the word "zero" and 黒む ''kuromu'', which means "turning black" or "tinged with darkness". May also be from 無 ''mu'', "nothing".
In an interview with the [[Official Nintendo Magazine]] UK (Issue 65), [[Ken Sugimori]] said that the "kuro" in Zekrom's name was from the Japanese word for Black, and the "Ze" was used because it was a harder, stronger sound than Reshiram's "Re", and Zekrom is a "powerful, strong character".
