I liked this name but made the mistake of telling someone who has put me off - whats your thoughts when you hear it?

Really don't like it. Sorry. Just think of jenson button. Not the worst thing in the world but feels like a celeb name to me so I don't like it for that reason.

Personally I don't like it, but I hate all the Sullivan / Jackson / Harrison surnames-for-first-name names and Jenson falls in to that for me

I like it too although I'd spell it Jensen.

I don't think surname when I see it at all, more Scandinavian.

It makes me think Ackles not Button too.

I think it's horrible, but. Note the word "Think". Its only my opinion. Not a fact.

Please don't use Jensen - in Danish it means 'Son of Jens'. Unless of course you are the son of Jens.....

Best as a surname only.

Don't like it. Also I think it is getting a bit overused but maybe that's just in my area.

I don't like it - I don't think it's got any character. Im not keen on any of the surname types names though.

Saying that, it's not awful. Just not the style of name I like.

Sorry, awful. I'm another surname-name-hater and tbh it sounds a bit made up.

I think you have to choose something you like. But personally I really dislike it. Firstly because it's a surname (son of Jens) and secondly because I put it in the same bracket as names like Tyler and Mason, which are not my style, at all.

I do know a couple of Jenson/Jensen both 8 yrs......they are cute but to me it will be a name that really dates the person. I think it'll be trendy for a short while. I'm not mad about it, but I prefer more classic names I guess.
