I think jazz is super cute but as a nn so Jasper seems to be the best way around this and you can still call him jazz from day one

No - what about Django instead.

"If you love a name use it and don't think about anyone else."

I think you should think about the child at least. It's a cute nn for James, Jasper or Jared etc, but as a full name it really does sound a bit silly. I'm also imagining Jazz hands teasing at school.

Would be hard to take someone seriously who is called Jazz.

I used to think that GiffGaff must have been the 'babyname' of its founder (Gavin somebody) - but it isn't.

I know a James called Jazz. However this is due to her sister was unable to say James when she was little..so it become Jazz. Grin

People will find it unusual as as seen above some will think it's too much however there are lots of names around that we're Thought of similarly when first used. I personally find some current names quite ridiculous. What really matters is what you think of it. If you love a name use it and don't think about anyone else. I imagine his peers would probably think hs name was cool

Short for Jasper?

(pml at middle name Mag)

a boy dog? I've known a couple of dogs called Jazz. It's also ok for a hamster, rabbit, guniea pig, cat or horse. It's too cool for a goldfish.

Middle name Mag?

What a ridiculous idea.

MummysLittleSunbeams · 12/05/2012 21:43

Errrrrr no. It's not really a name is it.
