With the surname 'Jones'? I can't decide whether I quite like the similar sounds, or whether the poor boy will be a laughing stock Confused

It's fine OP.
But if you prefer give him a middle name to break it up.

Oh I am very pleased by these responses!

It's our ds2 and this is the only name we can a) agree on and b) gives me the feels.

We will def have a middle name, though not sure what yet.

I actually know a person named George Jones. Never thought it sounded odd!

You probably couldn't have Jack Jones , or a George, brother of Mildred.
