I like it. One of the less common Biblical names, although I suspect it may be on the up.

Hate it, sorry - but I used to teach an evil one.

Never watched Neighbours, so I don't know who or what Toadie is, nor what it has to do with Jared.

I'm not sure what I think of it? Have only known one Jared, about 10 years older than me. V nice man. Where does it appear in the bible?

I don't think I love it...but could grow it. It's non-offensive in how it sounds..(!)
