I already have two children so with first names/middle names etc feel like I’ve used my favourites.
But I do like these;
Jamie
Quinn
Jared
Archer
Jonah
Jordan
Jasper
(Lots of J names I know!)

What do you think? Or anything negative attached to these I should know about? Or are they just horrible Grin

Jamie - yes
Quinn - no
Jared - maybe but it makes me think of Ivanka's husband
Archer - awful
Jonah - ok
Jordan - ok but Katie Price
Jasper - ok

@MikeUniformMike had to google who Ivanka was then! Ok taken Grin

Jordan is the only one after a family member but I didn’t think of Katie Price either! Might reserve that for a middle name!

Loving the feedback so far!
Any suggestings also welcome. Wink

Love Quinn! Jasper and Jamie are also very nice.

But I dislike Jordan and Jared, sorry.

Jordan is a boy's name - I know a Jordan who was named before KP made the headlines. I think it's nice. I doubt that the baby's peer group will know of KP or be interested. Jordy is cute as a nn. After Jamie it's my fave from your list.

I like Jamie and Jonah.
Quinn is a girls name to me .
Don't like Archer , not sure why
Jared sounds like an American high school boy lol
Jasper is ok but I know a cute little beagle called Jasper so that's all I can think of

I like them all except Jordan and Jared.

I vote Jasper, Quinn or Jamie. I’ve only ever known lovely Jamies.

Jonah is fabulous. It's a name I love but couldn't use as it doesn't go with our surname.

James with nn Jamie would be my second choice. Not sure I'd just got with Jamie.

I really like Quinn and Jamie.

Quinn sounds handsome, intelligent, confidant, and a little playful.

Jamie sounds like a whiny know it all.

Jonah sounds like a fat person with small soft hands

Archer sounds like cocky and arrogant guy who owns a very flashy but uncool motorcycle.

Jared sounds like an asshole, pretty boy type. Smarmy with girls.

Jordan sounds like a guy who's way into into himself and tweezes his eyebrows. Probably self tans too.

Jasper sounds like an old man that wears overalls who chews tobacco and spits it out in public.

Highly descriptive, I know! But these are the first impressions I get when I hear them. I don't know anyone with these names for reference. These are just the visual images I get when I hear them!

Good luck & Congratulations! Flowers

I like all the J names, but I'm not keen on the others.

Pick a J name!
