How many baby Jessicas do you know?

38 replies

We have more or less decided that our baby will be Jessica Charlotte if it's a girl. The only thing that puts me off is that it may be too popular. I read that it was the fourth post popular name in 2011 but I have only come across one baby Jessica recently.

How many do you all know?

And do you think that Jessica works with Charlotte as a middle name?
Thanks everyone!

Don't know any but it it is a lead contender for if we have a DD2

I know one aged 8 and know of another locally aged about 3. It is not a name I have heard a lot at toddler groups or out and about either, for babies. I would associate it more with older school age children, so also surprised to see it so far up the stats. Perhaps demographically it is more evenly spread than some other currently popular names which can result in clusters of Avas or (apparently from another recent thread) Beatrices!

Oh, i think Jessica Charlotte is very pretty, makes a change form the usual Grace or Rose combinations.

I know 2.

There were lots at school with me too so I see it as classic popular rather than faddy popular.

No babies, youngest is year1 and extremely lovely. :)

i have known of loads of kids called jessica, but its your baby. Better to call it a popular name that you like than an obscure name that youre not keen on

None. Only ones I know are 5 and 30.

notimefors · 17/03/2013 12:03

Thanks everyone. Think that's helped make my mind up. Lets just hope she looks like a Jessica Charlotte if she is a she! xx

I wondered if there would be a boom after the Olympics?

I know one adult Jessica and one aged 18 months. Lovely name esp with Charlotte.

ZolaBuddleia · 19/03/2013 16:45

I know a three year old one.
