I'm loving Jane at the moment. Do you think Jane Eyre, Jane Austen or Plain Jane Superbrain?

Also struggling with a middle name as everything sounds back to front e.g. Jane Emily should be Emily Jane, Jane Laura should be Laura Jane.

Surname is 2 syllables, begins with P. Older sister is a Sarah. We're not exactly adventurous.

Any thoughts?

I think it's a great name. Not showy, confident in itself.

Jane, Zzzzzzzz
Sorry my DDs have very simple classic names, but Jane is the dullest flatest name on the planet.

You just can't say Hi I'm Jane, without it being an anticlimax.

I like it, I know a little Jane, nn Janey. V unusual these days

I like it - unusual for a baby these days. I also think it calls for a longer middle name - Victoria, Elizabeth, Imogen, Isobel, Annabel, Rebecca.

I love it. It's my middle name but I often use it as my first name.

I think its fab.

its like Rose - makes a Meh middle name but a marvellous first name.

Love it might be my middle name!

Simple, classic and underused.

I like it with a 3 syllable middle name eg. Jane Elizabeth.

I like it. Classic and unusual (currently).
